Awami League (AL) Presidium member Mohammed Nasim today demanded of the government to further interrogate arrested

Bangabandhu murder trial convict sacked military captain Abdul Majed before the execution of his death penalty.

“This death sentence (of Majed) must be executed… But it’s better to interrogate him before for more information regarding the killing of
Bangabandhu and four national leaders. In the interrogation, it will also be known where the other killers of Bangabandhu fled,” he told BSS through a video clip here.

Nasim, also 14-party spokesperson, thanked the law enforces of the country as they arrested him during the coronavirus pandemic.

Mohammed Nasim is the son of Muhammad Mansur Ali, one of the four national leaders.

Majed was one of the remaining fugitives believed to be hiding abroad with no confirmed whereabouts.

After the August 15, 1975 carnage, Majed was rehabilitated in civil service during the subsequent regime of Ziaur Rahman as an ex-cadre official and posted as the director of National Savings Department and later he was transferred to the finance ministry.

He fled the country along with most other 1975 coup plotters as the 1996 general elections brought Awami League back to power under Sheikh Hasina’s leadership which vowed to expose Bangabandhu’s killers to justice in line with its election manifesto.
