After forty years of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, the government of Bangladesh
established a special tribunal to prosecute war crimes allegedly committed in
1971 that led to the creation of a new country. Therefore, in 2009, the
International Crimes (Tribunals) Act, 1973, was enacted by the Bangladeshi
parliament to prosecute the alleged executers of genocide, crimes against
humanity and other war crimes under the international law by a domestic tribunal.
In context to the on-going war crimes tribunal, study seeks to explore the
historical roots of the tribunal. The critical analysis of the historical developments
suggest that the said tribunal is falling short of international standards and also
lacking the jurisdiction in present scenario which has been initiated with political
motives in violation of international treaties and agreements between the parties.
