Dr Radhabinod Pal (Great Indian) 27/01/1886 to 10/01/1967
This organization has been started on 22nd December 2007 a tribute to Dr and Justice Radhabiond Pal was born in 1886 at a small village called Salimlpur under Taragunia union of Daulatpur Upazilla of Kushtia District in Bangladesh. He studied mathematics and constitutional law in Presidency College Kolkata and Law college of the University of Calcutta. He works as a professor at the Law College of University for 1923 to 1936. He became a Judge of Calcutta High Court in 1941 and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calcutta in 1944.
After the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the US, the Empire of Japan surrendered to the Allies on September 2, 1945. A Tokyo trial or the Tribunal was convened by the Allies to try the leaders of the Empire of Japan for crimes of war. Twenty-eight Japanese military and political leaders were charged with Class A crimes, and more than 5,700 Japanese nationals were charged with Class B and C crimes, mostly entailing prisoner abuse. China held 13 tribunals of its own, resulting in 504 convictions and 149 executions.
The only dissenting voice in the Tribunal was of Justice Radha Binod Pal. He was the only one who submitted a judgment that insisted all defendants were not guilty. He argued that the trial was simply an act of retribution by the Allies rather than an impartial judgment. He believed that the exclusion of Western colonialism and the use of the atomic bomb by the United States from the list of crimes signify the failure of the Tribunal to provide anything other than the opportunity for the victors to retaliate.
His argument was ignored and his opposition was banned from publication. Only after the American Occupation of Japan ended in 1952, the ban was subsequently lifted.
