DHAKA: Detained Jamaat-e-Islami Nayeb-e-Ameer Delwar Hossain Sayedee will be produced before the International Crimes Tribunal Today in connection with war-crime charges.

Dhaka Central Jail authorities brought him to the court premise at 9:40 am.

Hearing is scheduled at  10:30 am on the arrest warrant issued against Sayedee for committing ‘crime against humanity’ during the War of Liberation in 1971.

Earlier, the authorities had been directed twice to produce Sayedee before the tribunal on August 10 and 24. But the dates were deferred for Sayedee’s sickness and renovation work on the court building.
