in connection with a war crimes case yesterday.
Also the incumbent ameer of Satkhira district Jamaat, Khaleque allegedly led a group of razakars in Satkhira during the 1971 Liberation War. He was involved in the killing of at least 10 people including Rustom Ali of Shimulbaria and grabbing the land of Hindus in the locality.
The International Crimes Tribunal issued a warrant for his arrest on Thursday. The order reached Satkhira jail in the afternoon through a fax message.
Rustom's son Nazrul Islam Gazi filed a case against Khaleque on July 2, 2009 for the murder of his father and four others. The case was later transferred to the war crimes tribunal.
Khaleque is also accused of killing Abul Hossain Gazi and Ahed Ali of Kathanda village; Shamsur Rahman of Bolodghata; Monsur Sarder of Kholilnagar; and Taher Ali of Ghona Banshiapara.
"Earlier, Khaleque Mondol was arrested in other cases. But now he has been shown arrested in the war crimes case," Deputy Director of the tribunal Abdur Razzaque told news hounds yesterday.
Law enforcers arrested the Jamaat leader on June 16 from Kholilnagar Mohila Madrasa under sadar upazila while holding a secret meeting in the dead of night with his associates aimed at carrying out subversive acts. A foreign-made pistol and two rounds of bullets were also recovered from his possession.
