Former city mayor and President of Chittagong City Awami League (AL) Alhaj ABM Mohiuddin Chowdhury on Monday set a 15-day ultimatum to arrest the ruling party lawmaker M A Latif for, what he said, distorting the portrait of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
He also threatened to launch next course of action from a meeting if he (Latif) is not brought to the book within the stipulated time. “His parliamentary membership must be stripped off and he must be imprisoned in jail for his misdeed” Mohiuddin came up with the warning while speaking as the chief guest at a meeting at Laldighi Maidan this afternoon. Nagarik Moncho arranged the meeting with its convener Belayet Hossain in the chair, in protest against the distortion of the portrait of Father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
Mohiuddin said the rank and file of the party worked for Latif in the previous election as the Prime Minister nominated him as an AL candidate.”But through his disgraceful activities, now it is proved that he is an agent of Pakistan and he can no longer remain as a lawmaker of AL”, Mohiuddin added.
City AL Vice-president Khorshed Alam Sujon, among other AL, Jubo League, Chhatra League and Shramik League leaders, also spoke on the occasion.
