UNB, Dhaka :
BNP on Friday accused the government of crafting various ‘evil designs’ to arrest BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia, and threatened the government of dire consequences if it tries to arrest her in a bid to suppress the ongoing movement.
In a statement, BNP joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said, “The government is thinking that the 20-party’s movement is likely to lose its pace if Begum Zia is arrested.”
He further said, the current illegal government will have its political funeral if it
arrests Khaleda Zia as the agitators are active in the hartal and blockade programmes despite the so-called gunfight and crossfire.
The BNP leaders said the statements of the head of the government and its members suggest that they all are in a competition of using low-taste language.
He alleged that the national parliament has now been made either a second office of Awami League or a club of the grand alliance government where a competition is going on to hurl abusive words against the Zia family and issue threats to suppress the ongoing movement.
“They’re (MPs) simultaneously screaming for the arrest of the BNP chairperson,” he observed.
Coming down hard on Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s cousin Sheikh Selim, MP, Rizvi said he is talking about trying Khaleda in public only to appease his sister.
