Popular teacher-writer Muhammed Zafar Iqbal says the government has failed to rein in Islamist radicals and that Sajeeb Ahmed Wajed Joy’s recent remarks has encouraged them all the more.
On Wednesday, Iqbal addressed a ‘human chain’ event at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), a day after masked radicals hacked to death secular blogger Ananta Bijoy Das.
“The statement issued by prime minister’s son Joy over the blogger’s death will be treated as a signal by the fundamentalists,” said Iqbal.
“Joy’s statement seems to give the impression that murder after murder will continue and the government will do nothing, say nothing,” he said.
