The BNP wants a UN inquiry into the allegations in Al Jazeera's recently published report. The group said seven international human rights groups had called on the United Nations to investigate. The BNP is announcing its full support to the call. The party's standing committee member said this at a press conference at the BNP chairperson's political office in Gulshan on Wednesday. Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain. The BNP leader said that Al Jazeera's report is just a small picture of a huge canvas of human rights violations and misrule in this country. Extreme abuse of state power and a very small part of the mafia culture. The report highlights the gruesome process of seizing power by handing over power to the state apparatus and the rampant corruption.
The BNP is calling on the United Nations to investigate the allegations in the country's grim reality. On the one hand, the government has dismissed Al Jazeera's entire report as "false and fabricated". On the other hand, the UN has kindly said that there is no objection in this regard.
Threatening to sue Al Jazeera, the foreign minister said there were "informational errors, they would be exposed and we would prosecute.
However, before the documentary was aired, the accused were given an opportunity to defend themselves, which they ignored. Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain said the Bangladesh Army is the pride of the country. This defense force has always garnered the praise of the people. It is not acceptable for the image of this great institution of the state to be tarnished by the corruption or immorality of any individual or group.
Many of the allegations in Al Jazeera's report are undoubtedly serious criminal offenses under customary law. He said the allegations had turned into an international criminal offense due to reports of crimes at home and abroad. He said the Bangladeshi government had already acknowledged the import of eavesdropping equipment from Hungary for UN peacekeeping missions. Although the UN has categorically denied it.
Now the question in the minds of the people is, against whom are these illegally imported eavesdroppers and citizens' privacy rights being used? These tools are being used to suppress anti-public opinion in violation of fundamental constitutional rights.
He added that the country's involvement in the peacekeeping mission would now be in doubt as the UN rejected the UN's use of the name in the import case. BNP standing committee members Gayeshwar Chandra Roy, Nazrul Islam Khan, Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury, Selima Rahman and Iqbal Hasan told a news conference. Mahmud Tuku was present.
