War criminal Salauddin Quader Chowdhury did not seek presidential clemency, claimed his son Hummam Quader.

SQ Chowdhury denied filing any mercy plea, Hummam Quader told reporters after coming out. “He (SQ Chowdhury) said: ‘Who says such rubbish? I didn’t seek any mercy.’”

Eighteen members of SQ Chowdhury’s family, including his wife Farhat Quader and two sons Fazlul Quader and Hummam Quader, went inside and stayed for over an hour.
