Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali said on Wednesday that BNP-Jamaat alliance’s allegations of crimes against humanity lodged with the Hague-based International Criminal Court (ICC) against the government since 2013 have been termed as baseless in the court.
“A prosecutor of the court recently informed us through a letter that there is no legal basis of such allegations,” the Foreign Minister said while talking to journalists at his Secretariat office in the afternoon afternoon.
The ICC prosecutor has been named as Fatou Bensouda.
The Cabinet Minister said this has proved that the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami spread falsehood against independent Bangladesh and the Bengali nation in order to mar country’s image in the international arena.
“With their ill efforts they, Jamaat is trying to hide its crimes including mass killing and rape arson during the Liberation War in 1971,” Minister Ali said.
