Bangladesh has started sharing real-time intelligence on the activities of radical forces and its drive against the Jamaat-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) with its counterpart in India, but Myanmar’s poor cooperation on the insurgency front remains a matter of concern for New Delhi, reports The Asian Age on May 15.Security sources said that the Union Home Ministry was constantly in touch with Bangladesh to foil any attempt by radical forces to cross over to West Bengal and Assam for shelter. Sources also said that Dhaka has launched a massive combing operation against its radical forces. Pointing out that Southeast Asian countries have agreed to bilateral cooperation in the fight against insurgency, Security sources said it was regrettable that Myanmar is yet to translate its assurances into a reality.

The Supreme Court (SC) on May 15 upheld its earlier verdict that handed convicted war criminal Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) Nayeb-e-Ameer (Deputy Chief) Delawar Hossain Sayedee imprisonment until death for his crimes against humanity committed during the Liberation War in 1971, reports The Daily Star. A five-member bench of the Appellate Division headed by Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha dismissed two separate petitions filed by Sayedee and the Government seeking review of its previous verdict. Sayedee pleaded for acquittal from the charges, while the Government sought for his capital punishment. The International Crimes Tribunal-1 (ICT-1) on February 28, 2014 sentenced Sayedee to death. Later on September 17, 2014, Sayedee's capital punishment was commuted to imprisonment until death after the war criminal moved an appeal with the SC. On January 12, 2016, the Government filed a review petition with the SC, seeking death penalty of Sayedee for his war crimes. Sayedee also filed a plea on January 17, 2016 seeking review of the SC verdict. In the petition he sought acquittal from all the charges in which he was found guilty by the SC.
