Abstract
Abstract Bangladesh gained its independence from Pakistan in 1971 after a nine-month long war. The Pakistani military and local collaborators carried out brutal operations on Bangladeshi civilians during the period of 25 March to 16 December 1971, which caused genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes. This scoping review synthesises the data related to laws, policies, institutions, and culture of Bangladesh surrounding victims, their families, and perpetrators of the aforesaid crimes. Bangladesh faced questions in prosecuting the local collaborators of the Pakistani military at the domestic tribunal, whilst Pakistani war criminals have not yet been tried, and there is still no international consensus on recognising the genocide. On the other hand, the lack of an internationalised judicial response further indicates that no sincere effort has been made to establish a global post-conflict resolution that transcends the regional parties involved in this matter.
