No: 214, 4 September 2016, Press Release Regarding the Execution of Mir Quasem Ali, Key-Financier and Central Executive Council Member of the Jamaat-e-Islami in Bangladesh

We have learned with sorrow that the death sentence issued by the International Crimes Tribunal in Bangladesh against Mir Quasem Ali, Key-Financier and Central Executive Council Member of the Jamaat-e-Islami, has been executed in Bangladesh.

We stress once again that the wounds of the past cannot be healed with these methods and hope that this wrong practice will not lead to separation among the brotherly people of Bangladesh.
