Awami League Joint General Secretary Mahbubul Alam Hanif on Tuesday said the verdict against Jamaat-e-Islami leader Abdul Quader Molla will be put into effect during the tenure of the current ruling government.
Hanif made the claim while talking to journalists at his Karwan Bazaar office at around 11:30am.
Deeming the trial a milestone, Hanif said: “The nation has been pleased with the fulfilment of their long awaited expectation.”
Earlier in the morning, the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court sentenced Abdul Quader Molla to death for his crimes against humanity during the Liberation War.
