Justin Trudeau likely to resign this week

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reportedly set to resign, with an announcement possible as early as Monday.

However, he may stay in office until summer as the ruling Liberal Party selects a new leader.

Trudeau’s decision could precede the party's national caucus meeting on Wednesday, according to the Globe and Mail.

While Trudeau may seek to host the G7 summit in Alberta this June, his leadership faces mounting pressure. Over half of the 153 Liberal MPs in the House of Commons have called for his resignation, a figure nearing 100.

With Parliament returning on January 27 and a no-confidence motion expected, Trudeau might seek to prorogue Parliament to facilitate the leadership transition.

Meanwhile, three cases were filed with ICT in connection with enforced disappearances during the tenure of the AL government.

Tribunal prosecutors Gazi Monawar Hossain, BM Sultan Mahmud and Abdullah Al Noman were present during the hearing.

Besides, Sanjida Islam Tulee, one of the coordinators of Mayer Dak and the family members of the victims were present there.
