孟加拉国特别法庭周一下令当局继续关押三名记者,直至其因2024年起义案受审1。被关押的记者包括埃卡图电视台主编莫扎梅尔·巴布、首席记者法尔扎纳·鲁帕和《布罗尔·卡戈日报》编辑希亚马尔·达塔1。检控方指控这三人在2024年7月14日的记者会上对前总理谢赫·哈西娜提出具有挑衅性的问题,导致哈西娜对示威者发表贬损言论,最终引发流血镇压1。下次庭审日期定于10月25日1。
三名记者已被拘留数年,面临包括与2024年7月至8月起义相关的谋杀罪等多项指控1。起义期间数百人被杀,哈西娜因违反人道主义罪被判死刑,于两年前逃往印度1。国际特赦组织亚太项目协调员库纳尔·马宗德表示:"仅因在记者会上提问就对记者提起违反人道主义罪指控是令人愤怒和深感困扰的"1。
A special tribunal in Bangladesh ruled on Monday that three journalists must remain in custody pending trial in connection with the 2024 uprising.1 The detainees—Mozammel Babu, editor-in-chief of Ekattor Television; Farzana Rupa, chief reporter; and Shyamal Datta, editor of Boral Kago newspaper—face charges stemming from questions they posed during a July 14 press conference with then-Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.1 Prosecutors allege that their inquiries prompted Hasina to make disparaging remarks about protesters, ultimately contributing to a violent crackdown that claimed hundreds of lives during the uprising.1
The next hearing has been scheduled for October 25.1 The three journalists have already been detained for several years and confront multiple charges, including murder accusations related to the July-to-August 2024 uprising.1 Hasina fled to India two years ago after being sentenced to death on crimes against humanity charges.1
The detention has drawn international criticism. Kunal Mazumder, coordinator of Amnesty International's Asia-Pacific program, stated: "It is outrageous and deeply disturbing that journalists are being charged with crimes against humanity simply for asking questions at a press conference."1
