Bangladesh’s International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) on Wednesday ordered 15 army officers to be sent to jail over three separate cases of enforced disappearances, killings, and other crimes against humanity allegedly committed during the Awami League government, local media reported.

A three-member bench of ICT, headed by Justice Golam Mortuza Majumdar, issued the order on Wednesday morning after hearing a petition.
Reports suggest that the accused officers sought bail, but the tribunal rejected their petitions and ordered their remand in jail.
Confirming the development, Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Tajul Islam said: “The tribunal has ordered the 15 army officers produced today in connection with the enforced disappearance and murder cases to be sent to jail.”
