War crimes tribunal to deliver verdict on RP Saha killing anytime
"The trial has taken place 48 years after the murder of Ranada Prasad Saha, which is very unfortunate and frustrating. “Everyone who testified in the case said RP Saha went missing. He also said he had seen RP Saha being picked up.

Softball Splits Doubleheader with Ithaca College
14 Ithaca College (22-6-1,10-0 Liberty) in a midweek matchup with mixed results. “It started in the circle with the pitching staff executing each pitch and taking the Ithaca hitters out of their rhythm, especially in some key moments.”That pitching played a key role in the doubleheader is an encouraging sign for a Red pitching staff that has struggled with injuries all season. After a narrow loss in game one, the Red remained composed to rally back and win game two. In addition to earning the win on the mound, Delany tallied her first career home run in the game. “Our offense has demonstrated throughout the season that we are capable of hitting with just about any opponent,” Maguire said.

After 27 years, she awoke last June at a clinic near Munich, where doctors had been treating her for the complications of her long illness.

Patients in a state of reduced consciousness are usually classified into three categories. In a full coma, the patient shows no signs of being awake, with eyes closed, and is unresponsive to the environment. Signs that Abdulla was recovering started to emerge last year when she began saying her son’s name.

NFL Draft: Previous Bears picks in crosshairs entering 2019
Even with few remaining holes on the Bears’ NFC North champion roster, however, not all of Ryan Pace’s draft picks enjoy the kind of job security of Smith. The only remaining member of Pace’s first draft class — impenetrable nose guard Eddie Goldman — is as locked in as any non-Pro Bowler on the Bears ‘D.’ But which member of Pace’s three subsequent draft classes are most in the crosshairs entering draft weekend? The 6-foot-5, 270-pounder was the 45th overall pick only two years ago, one of Pace’s three big swings to solidify a still-shaky TE position. Only a combined 11 starts and 17 catches later, the injury-riddled Shaheen could be pushed by a more polished pass-catching rookie. With Lynch on a one-year deal and Floyd’s 2020 salary guaranteed only for injury, Fitts likely will have company in trying to lock down the final OLB spot.

City take big step towards Premier League title with Manchester derby win at United
City have 89 points, one more than rivals Liverpool, with both teams having three games to play. Second half goals from Bernardo Silva and Leroy Sane ensured a comfortable win for City against a United side that remain in sixth place, outside the Champions League qualification slots. United, smarting from their 4-0 hammering at Everton on Sunday, played with aggression and energy in the scoreless first half but the game was put beyond them after the break. Bernardo Silva picked the ball up on the right flank and cut inside, surprising United keeper David De Gea with a low drive that sneaked in the bottom corner in the 54th minute. Twelve minutes later and City doubled their lead -- Fred giving the ball away in midfield, Raheem Sterling breaking forward before feeding Sane on the left with the German's powerful drive flying in off the outstretched leg of De Gea.

Bangladesh-UK extradition treaty not on the cards
The reason behind this stance, as given by the British government, is that the UK does not have extradition treaties with any country. The issue relating to an extradition treaty between Bangladesh and the UK was raised to public domain recently, after BNP Senior Vice Chairman Tarique Rahman, who has been residing in London since 2008, was convicted in graft cases in 2018. The UK side appeared to be “non-committal” when Bangladesh raised the issue, said another source. Asked if Bangladesh ever officially proposed for an extradition treaty, the source said: “When the UK has made it clear that it does not have such a treaty with any country, there is no point in making an official proposal.”The officials, however, observed that convicted criminals could be brought back to Bangladesh without any extradition treaty if the British judiciary could be convinced. The meeting began with both sides welcoming the progress made in the Bangladesh-UK bilateral relations.
