War trial: SC upholds life-term jail for Sayedee

The Supreme Court today upheld its earlier verdict that handed convicted war criminal Delawar Hossain Sayedee imprisonment until death in a war crimes case.

Effectively now, Sayedee will have to serve prison time until his natural death.

A five-member Appellate Division bench headed by Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha dismissed two separate petitions filed by Sayedee and the government seeking review of its previous order.
