Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal postponed a major hearing until July 3. The court delayed proceedings about charging suspects accused of killing six people last August. Defense lawyers requested more time to prepare their case arguments. Justice Md Golam Mortuza Mozumder led the three-judge panel that made this decision. Chief Prosecutor Muhammad Tajul Islam attended the session to argue against the accused.

Four former police commanders failed to appear at the tribunal despite court orders. The missing officials worked for Dhaka Metropolitan Police during the August violence. Authorities published newspaper notices demanding their court appearance on June 3. The tribunal appointed Advocate Md Kutubuddin to represent the absent suspects. These fugitives face charges related to deaths at Chankharpul area.

Prosecutors filed formal charges against eight people on May 25 for crimes against humanity. Six victims died during violent events on August 5, 2024. Shahriar Khan Anas, Sheikh Mahdi Hasan Zunayed, Md Yakub, Md Rakib Hawlader, Md Ismamul Haque and Manik Miah lost their lives that day. Investigators spent more than six months gathering evidence about these deaths. The probe report contains testimony from 79 witnesses along with video footage and documents.
