A Bangladeshi special court handed down the latest in a line of death sentences to a former political activist prosecuted for war crimes. 
The International Crimes Tribunal, a domestic court, found Forkan Malik guilty of rape and murdering civilians.
“The court observed that he willingly committed these crimes, especially on the Hindu community,” prosecutor Mokhlesur Rahman Badal told reporters.
Malik was arrested from the southern town of Barisal last year and was a former member of the then-Muslim league during Bangladesh’s 1971 war for independence from Pakistan. 
The court found him guilty of joining the Razakar militia which collaborated with the Pakistani army and was accused of committing war crimes. 
The International Crimes Tribunal, set up in 2009 to investigate the war crimes, has so far passed 19 verdicts, sentencing most to death or life imprisonment.
