BANGLADESH NEWS

Home Minister Shahara Khatun on Sunday said the government is not afraid of BNP’s threat of waging a tough movement to topple the government.

“We’re not scared of the red eyes of BNP. The people of the country are not afraid of their threat either,” she said while addressing at a discussion at Dhaka Reporters’ Unity (DRU).

Shahara said the BNP-Jamaat alliance is trying to create anarchy in the country in the name of movement. “We’ll have to lead the country towards development resisting such movement with an iron hand,” she said.

The home minister said Jamaat had waived red-green flags on their cars riding the shoulder of BNP in 2001. “Now the people of the country should get united so that Jamaat can’t waive flags on their cars this time.”

“Today, war crimes trial is being held, but a vested quarter is trying to foil the trial process,” she said.

Shahara said the assailants who were behind the August 21 grenade attack must be tried.

Bangabandhu Academy organised the programme on occasion of the 8th death anniversary of Awami League leader Ivy Rahman.

Chaired by president of Banganandhu Academy Mujibur Rahman, the programme was attended, among others, by Awami League leaders Mojaffar Hossain Poltu and Ahmed Hossain.
