Australia has underscored the importance of ensuring the rule of law and holding alleged perpetrators of human rights violations accountable through independent and transparent investigations.
“We reiterate Australia’s support for universal human rights, including the right to freedom of assembly and peaceful protest. Australia remains deeply concerned by the recent violence,” said the Australian High Commission in Dhaka in a message through its verified Facebook page.
On the declared nationwide mourning day, July 30, the High Commission honoured the memories of all those who were killed in the recent violence in Bangladesh.
