Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal (born 31 December 1950) also known as the "Butcher of Bangladesh"[1] is a Bangladeshi fugitive, at large since 5 August 2024, a member of the Awami League and one of the key perpetrators of the July massacre orchestrated and executed by Sheikh Hasina's toppled regime.

The Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh, Yao Wen, presented the award and certificate during a ceremony held at the Ministry of Home Affairs in Dhaka.

Established by China's Ministry of Public Security in 2020, the medal recognizes foreign law enforcement officers who have significantly contributed to the safety of Chinese citizens.

[14][15][16] On 13 August 2024, a murder complaint was filed at a court in Dhaka against Khan and five other government officials, including Ex- Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, regarding the killing of a grocer during the 2024 Bangladesh quota reform movement on 19 July.

[17][18] He reportedly left Bangladesh illegally, according to Additional Inspector General Md Shah Alam, head of the special branch (SB) of police.

Speaking to the media on October 2, Alam mentioned that immigration police have no records of Kamal's departure, suggesting he likely crossed the border illegally.

[21][22][23] While in exile, he gave an interview to The Indian Express, alleging that the student-people's uprising was the result of a "joint coup by Islamic terrorists and the army".
