“I would like to say clearly that the Digital Security Act has not been formulated to impede freedom of speech, opinion or freedom of press. It has been formulated only to tackle cyber crimes,” he said while talking to newsmen after coming out of his meeting with a delegation
of European Union (EU) at his Gulshan residence yesterday afternoon.
The 11-member delegation headed by EU Ambassador in Bangladesh Rensje Teerink and the US and Canadian envoys here in the country were also present on the occasion.
“The foreign envoys have expressed little concern about Digital Security Act and they had mainly come here to apprise me about that. We mainly discussed the section 43 of the act and I gave them a patience hearing and assured them that I will discuss with the government about their concern,” Anisul Huq added.
