Bangabandhu killer Majed executed
One of the convicted killers of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Captain (Dismissed) Abdul Majed has been executed.
He was hanged at 12:01 am in presence of IG Prisons Brigadier General AKM Mostafa Kamal Pasha.
A jail official said all the preparations had been completed on Saturday in this regard.
The scaffold had been cleaned on Saturday afternoon and a trial was conducted before the execution.
It was the first execution in the jail so far after the scaffold was prepared.
Earlier, the family members of Abdul Majed met him at Dhaka Central Jail in Keraniganj.
Five members, including Majed’s wife Saleha, one brother-in-law and one uncle-in-law, entered the jail on Friday evening.
Earlier on Wednesday, the rejection letter of Majed’s life plea reached the jail and then the jail authority started preparing for the execution.
Abdul Majed had been fugitive for 23 years though he was detained from Dhaka’s Mirpur area.
