Asif Nazrul said that the killings during the student movement--between July 1 and August 5--will be tried at the International Crimes Tribunal and efforts are being made to investigate the incidents under the supervision of the United Nations. The adviser also said, "Even though journalists have provided evidence of false cases in their reports, unfortunately, our judiciary did not notice it. It was very surprising to me. Allah has given me the opportunity to look into this." He informed that all false cases will be withdrawn. Asked about providing legal assistance to the victims of the ‘Aynaghor’, the law adviser said the victims have the opportunity to come to the International Crimes Tribunal and lodge cases. Addressing enforced disappearances as a crime against humanity, he said, “Anyone can file a case with the International Crimes Tribunal. The state can, so can the victims. Later, we can also take initiative at the state level. Right now, we are focused on the July killings.” However, the issue of enforced disappearances is very important, he said, adding that he is not underplaying it in any way.
