Recently, there has been significant press coverage in Bangladesh and India regarding the heinous murder of Bangladeshi Member of Parliament Anwarul Azim in India. The majority of the accused individuals are of Bangladeshi origin and have been apprehended in Bangladesh. However, the primary culprit, who happens to be a Bangladeshi American, escaped to the United States. Therefore, three countries are now involved with this case, prompting a discussion on jurisdiction over crimes in international context.

Foysal Ali Sahazi and Mostafizur Rahman Fakir, suspects in the Jhenaidah-4 MP Anwarul Azim Anar murder case, are truck drivers. But to dodge the eyes of law enforcers, they started working as cooks at a temple.
