Govt trying to bring back convicted war criminals Mueen, Ashraf
The government effort has been continuing to bring back convicted war criminals Chowdhury Mueen Uddin from the UK and Ashrafuzzaman Khan from the US.
"We are maintaining constant communication with these two countries and working as part of the efforts to bring them back," foreign ministry spokesperson Seheli Sabrin said at a weekly media briefing at the ministry here today.
Mueen and Ashraf were sentenced to death after Special War Crimes Tribunal found them guilty of abducting and murdering 18 intellectuals including nine university teachers, six journalists and three doctors in December of 1971.
