Haque, also former chief of the Department of Immigration and Passports, has been charged with crimes against humanity, including killing and torture. “The documents and proofs that the prosecution presented against my client do not show that he had committed those crimes. Haque was a member of the Pakistan army during the Liberation War. He was made the chief of NSI in the 1990s and later was appointed as the director general of the Department of Immigration and Passports. As a member of the Pakistan army, Haque committed war crimes, including killing in the Rangpur Cantonment and genocide, prosecutors said.
