[wanita-muslimah] Bangladesh Jamaat leader sentenced to death

 

Ref: Berani sekali penegak hukum di Bangladesh menghukum mati Ustadz Delwar Hossain Sayedee. Bila Bangladesh dibandingkan dengan penegak hukum rezim Neo-Mojopahit NKRI, bisa dipakai contoh ustadz Jaffar Umar Talib, pemimpin Laskar Jihad Sunnah Wal Jamaah yang dikirim ke Sulawesi Tengah dan Maluku untuk membasmi kaum Nasrani dengan sponsor SBY dan komplotannya, si Jaffar enak-enak saja tak ada yang mau utik-utik masalahnya. Sama halnya dengan para pelaku pembunuhan masal 1965/1965 dan pembunuhan-pembunuhan di Aceh semasa DOM atau juga di Papua, masalah Tanjung Priok, masalah Mei 1998 dsbnya, semua masalah ini direstui oleh rezim neo-Mojopahit dengan alasan tidak ada bukti yang cukup untuk diproses hukum. Para pelaku perbuatan kriminal (crime against humanity) pun mendapat tempat terhormat dalam herarki kekuasaan rezim berkuasa.

Bangladesh Jamaat leader sentenced to death

A Bangladesh war crimes tribunal has sentenced a leader of the opposition Jamaat-e-Islami party to death, the third verdict by the court set up to investigate abuses during the country's 1971 war of independence from Pakistan.

Delwar Hossain Sayedee, 73, vice-president of the party, was found guilty of charges of mass killing, rape, arson, looting and religious persecution during the liberation war, lawyers and tribunal officials said on Thursday.

"The verdict has appropriately demonstrated justice. We are happy," state prosecutor Haider Ali told reporters.

Lawyers for the defendant boycotted the tribunal during the verdict.

Comments from Sayedee's lawyers were not immediately available, but he had previously denied the allegations and said the charges were politically motivated.

Jamaat-e-Islami, the country's largest Islamic party, has denounced the trial and had called for a day-long countrywide strike in anticipation of the verdict against Sayedee.

Earlier this month the War Tribunal sentenced Jamaat's assistant secretary general Abdul Quader Molla to life imprisonment, sparking deadly protests by Islamists that left 16 people dead.

The verdict also enraged secular protesters, tens of thousands of whom have since poured onto a central Dhaka intersection to reject the "lighter sentence" and demand the execution of Jamaat leaders.

Last month another Jamaat leader Maolana Abul Kalam Azad was sentenced to death in absentia. Seven other top leaders of Jamaat are on trial for their alleged role in the atrocities during the war.

Tight security

Security was tight in the Bangladeshi capital on Thursday, with about 10,000 policemen on patrol. The government has also deployed border guards as reinforcement to prevent violence.

Schools and shops were shut and roads in Dhaka and inter-city motorways were empty.

The tribunal, a domestic body with no international oversight, has been tainted by controversies and allegations it is targeting only the opposition.

But the scale of recent secular protests show a large section of Bangladeshis support moves to punish those linked to atrocities during 1971.

Sheikh Hasina, the prime minister, set up the tribunal in 2010 to investigate abuses during the independence war that, according to the government, claimed about 3 million lives and during which thousands of women were raped.

The tribunal has been criticised by rights groups for failing to adhere to international standards of due process.
