I was dispatched in  the 1960s by the Saudi government to Chittagong to issue Bangladeshi  pilgrims Haj visas. In the 1980s I returned to Bangladesh as a  plenipotentiary at the Saudi Embassy in Dhaka.
After retirement,  a group of people who love Bangladesh decided to form the  Saudi-Bangladeshi Friendship Association in Jeddah. Our objective was to  strengthen bilateral relations and help the Bangladesh workforce in ...]]></description>

However, he stopped short of admitting any wrongdoing, apologizing for his actions, or expressing remorse.
In  a landmark ruling in April, judges at the Special Court for Sierra  Leone found Taylor guilty of 11 counts of war ...]]></description>

Jamaat-e-Islami&#8217;s former chief Ghulam Azam was indicted on Sunday for incitement, conspiracy, planning, abetment and failure to prevent crimes against humanity during the Bangladesh&#8217;s War of Independence in 1971.
When asked to plead, the former Jamaat chief said there were numerous charges mentioned. &#8220;It is not possible to respond to all of them in a short time. But I ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since the 3rd U.N. General Assembly adopted the Convention on  the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide on December 9,  1948, international law has faced a paradox. The international community  resolved to make the systematic annihilation of populations a universal  jurisdiction crime with no statute of limitations.

The three-judge tribunal, chaired by Justice Mohammad Nizamul Huq, was set up on Mar 25, 2010 to deal with crimes against humanity during the 1971 Liberation War.
The tribunal had adjourned proceedings on Monday considering Jamaat executive council member Sayedee&#8217;s personal pleading that none of his senior counsels were present.
