The International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) on Wednesday ordered the authorities concerned to complete the investigation into the case filed on charges of crimes against humanity over the killing of Begum Rokeya University student Abu Sayed during the July uprising, and to submit the report by June 15.
The three-member bench of the ICT, led by Chairman Justice Md Golam Mortuza Mozumder, passed the order after hearing a petition.
The tribunal also directed the authorities to keep former sub-inspector Amir Hossain, Constable Sujon Roy, former proctor of Begum Rokeya University Shariful Islam, and Chhatra League Leader Imran Chowdhury Akash in jail after showing them arrested in the case.
All four accused were produced before the court in the morning.
Prosecutor Mizanul Islam said that preliminary evidence of crimes had been found against 26 individuals in the murder case and that the investigation is in its final stages.
On March 2, the tribunal had directed police to produce the four accused before the court on April 9.
Abu Sayed, a 12th-batch student of Begum Rokeya University's English Department, was killed during the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement on the afternoon of July 16—thus becoming the first student killed in police firing during the July uprising.
Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Amir Hossain and Constable Sujan Chandra Roy were suspended and attached to the police lines for their alleged involvement in the killing.
