The SC on September 30 released the full verdicts awarding death penalty to Mojaheed and SQ Chowdhury for their crimes against humanity during the war, clearing the way for the execution of the judgments.
Earlier, the court on June 16 upheld the death sentence awarded by the ICT-2 to Mojaheed for killing intellectuals during the war.
A four-member bench of the Appellate Division, headed by Chief Justice SK Sinha, delivered the short order of the verdict.
The Appellate Division upheld the tribunal order sentencing the Jamaat leader to death for provoking and assisting Al Badr to kill intellectuals after confining them to Teacher’s Training Institute in Dhaka.

On August 11, 2013, condemned convict Mojaheed filed an appeal with the Appellate Division against his capital punishment awarded by the ICT-2.

On July 29, the Supreme Court upheld the verdict of the then International Crimes Tribunal-1 (ICT-1) that had condemned BNP leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury to death for committing crimes against humanity, including rape and mass killing during the Liberation War 43 years ago.
