The seventh prosecution witness, Shah Ali Hasan alias Fulu Mia, in the case against former Jatiya Party state minister Syed Mohammad Qaisar was cross examined at the war crimes tribunal, yesterday.
Fulu testified on Sunday and described the abduction of his father Shah Hossain Ali by the Qaisar Bahini, a group of collaborators led by the accused in Habiganj.
During the questioning, defence counsel Abdus Sobhan Tarafder asked the witness more questions about his personal life rather than focusing on the deposition he had submitted earlier.
The tribunal refused to accept some of the questions related to Fulu’s personal life.
The International Crimes Tribunal 2 adjourned the proceedings until today and asked the prosecution to call in the next witness.
Qaisar was indicted on February 2 this year on 16 counts of crimes against humanity which he had committed during the 1971 Liberation War.
