The two were indicted last year on three charges that include murder and mass killing at Shibganj. 

Justice Obaidul Hassan, chairman of International Crimes Tribunal-2, kept the verdict in abeyance after the trial ended on Wednesday.  

Badiur Rahman of Monkosha Union filed the case accusing the two and ten others of genocide at a court in Chapainawabganj in 2013. 

Police arrested Rahman from Shibganj’s Durlabhpur Union and Chutu from Binodhpur in September last year.
