Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal today said that the verdict of
convicted war criminals Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed and Salauddin Quader
Chowdhury will be executed following the existing legal procedures.
“We are not doing anything deviating from law to execute the death
sentences of Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed and Salauddin Quader
Chowdhury,” said Kamal while addressing a function held at Bottomley
Home Girls' High School in Dhaka this noon.
Terming the war criminals Mojaheed and Salauddin as enemies of the
nation and humanity, Kamal said, “We are initiating measures to execute
the verdict according to the order given by the country’s apex court in
this regard.”
People from all walks of life have welcomed the death verdict of
Mojaheed and Salauddin and they want its immediate execution, Kamal
added.
“I am bravely telling that such a verdict was our expectation and it is going to be implemented,” he said.
Responding to a query about law and order, he said law enforcement
and intelligence agencies will remain alert on the streets to avert any
untoward incident over the issue.
