DHAKA NEWS


Dhaka, Feb 27 The government and law enforcing agencies are working relentlessly to arrest the absconders of the failed coup attempt, says a minister.

Planning minister A K Khandakar, also minister in charge of the Armed Forces Division, said this in reply to a question of Awami League lawmaker Begum Ahmed Nazneen Sultana in parliament on Monday.

The minister said there are primary indications that a religious fundamentalist organisation was involved in the heinous act.

Involvement of others is also being examined, he said adding, "A non-resident Bangladeshi civilian named Ishraq Ahmed was also involved."

"Trial of those involved in the failed coup will start as soon as the investigation is completed," he said adding, "A court of inquiry was set up on Dec 28 to establish the motive and the identity of those responsible of the coup bid."
