The Speedy Trial Tribunal-4 in Dhaka on August 20 sentenced Salahuddin alias Salehin, a Majlish-e-Shura (the highest decision-making body) member of the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), to death for killing a youth in Jamalpur four years back. Daily Star reports that the court acquitted two other JMB cadres-- Amir Khan and Sharif Monwar alias Shiplu -- as the charges brought against them were not proved. A group of JMB members led by Salahuddin killed Hridoy Roy of Sonarcor in Jamalpur's Sarishabari sub-district on April 23, 2003 accusing him of converting poor Muslim locals to Christianity.
