The Anti-Terrorism Special Tribunal of Dhaka city on November 27 sentenced seven Neo-Jama’atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (Neo-JMB) militants to death for their involvement in the 2016 Holey Artisan Bakery attack, terming it a disgraceful attack aimed at assassinating the non-communal character of Bangladesh, reports The Daily Star. The seven death-row convicts are - Jahangir Hossain, Aslam Hossain Rash, Hadisur Rahman, Rakibul Hasan Regan, Mohamad Abdus Sabur Khan, Shariful Islam Khaled and Mamunur Rashid Ripon. The Anti-Terrorism Special Tribunal acquitted one accused as it found him not guilty in the atrocity. The court cleared accused Mizanur Rahman alias Boro Mizan from the charges. Five young militants, armed with guns, machete and grenades, stormed the upscale eatery in the diplomatic zone in Gulshan on July 1, 2016, and held the diners hostage before brutally killing 20 of them - three Bangladeshis, seven Japanese, nine Italians and one Indian.
