The International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) has brought amendment to its rules of procedure, narrating the method of trying an organization under the act.
ICT prosecutor Gazi Monawar Hossain Tamim told BSS that the provision of trying and punishing an organization was brought earlier by amending the ICT Act, but this latest amendment, which will be called “International Crimes Tribunal-1 Rules of Procedure 2010 (Amendment), 2025” has explained the method of trying that organization and those, from that accused organization, can represent it at the tribunal during the trial.
“…if cognizance is taken against any organization, summons/warrant shall be served upon the President/Chairman/Chairperson or Secretary of the person (s) in charge of the concerned organization. The organization shall be represented by its President/Chairman/Chairperson or Secretary or any other member of the executive committee and accordingly the said person(s) may be made liable, if deemed expedient by the Tribunal, to be inflicted with punishment for violation of or disobedience to any order of the Tribunal in relation to or arising out of any order passed under the Act and/or Rules,” the Rule-30 said.বিস্তারিত
