UNB, Dhaka :
Advocating for the arrest of BNP chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia, Disaster Management and Relief Minister Mofazzal Hossain Chowdhury Maya on Tuesday said she should be detained on charges of giving orders to carry out the terrorist acts taking place across the country during the indefinite transport blockade.
“It’s the demand of the time to arrest BNP chairperson as an ‘order-giver accused’, for inciting her men to kill people in arson attacks on transports,” he claimed while addressing a rally organised by Muktijoddha Projonmo League in front of the Jatiya Press Club.
Maya, also the general secretary of Awami League, Dhaka city unit, urged the government to track down
the criminals, including their mentor, engaged in the terrorist acts and take steps to give them exemplary punishment through trial.
Ruling out the possibility of midterm national elections as the BNP has been demanding, Maya asked the BNP chairperson to have patience and wait for the next general election till 2019 under the Sheikh Hasina government.
He was critical of the BNP chairperson’s political role, terming it another form of Bangladesh’s ruination. The relief minister said Khaleda Zia is “playing ducks and drakes” with the fate of the people.
Maya alleged that the BNP chairperson is doing all these evil acts with a mission to save herself and her son Tarique Rahman from Zia Orphanage Trust graft case and to protect the war criminals and turn Bangladesh into Pakistan. “Awami League will not bow down to such wrongdoings and false demand.”
