BNP Senior Secretary General Advocate Ruhul Kabir Rizvi today said that Bangladesh was turned into a mass grave during the “fascist Sheikh Hasina’s regime”.
“Many cohorts of the fascist are still in the administration and the law enforcement agencies in guise,” he said while distributing anti-Dengue leaflets at the city’s Uttara area as part of the BNP’s central programme to create mass awareness against the mosquito-borne disease.
Rizvi said, “The fallen fascist Sheikh Hasina turned Bangladesh into a mass grave by killings of student-people, leaders and activists of different political parties through indiscriminate firings and executing enforced disappearances using the then administration and the law enforcement agencies.”
BNP Health Affairs Secretary Dr. Rafiqul Islam, Assistant Organising Secretary, Prof Aminul Islam, BNP leaders Tabith Awal, Aminul Haque and SM Jahangir, were present, among others.
Rizvi called for finding out the cohorts of the fascist government and expose them to justice, saying, “Otherwise, the souls of the martyrs will not get peace.”
He demanded investigation into the recruitment of 803 sub-inspectors in police, 200 of them hailed from Gopalganj, as all of them were cadres of Sheikh Hasina.
The senior BNP leader asked the Home Affairs Adviser how the police personnel including 200 sub inspectors from a district like Gopalganj, who killed student-people by opening fires at them, are still working in police.
Referring to a comment made by a police officer, “Sir, two stand if one dies” after showing a video footage of a incident of indiscriminate firings at the student-people movement during July-August, Rizvi said, “It will be similar to do betray with the blood of the student-people if such police officers to be entrusted with responsibilities of various posts.”
