Parliamentary Whip Advocate Ruhul Quddus Talukder Dulu on Sunday said every killing committed over the past 17 years will be brought to justice and former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will have to face the people’s trial.
“Delwar Hossain Sayeedi was hanged. Delwar Hossain Sayeedi never did Jamaat-e-Islami in his life. You could hang a person like Delwar Hossain Sayeedi!” Dulu said.
He also referred to the execution of BNP leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury, saying, “Salauddin Quader Chowdhury was in England at that time. He drove from Pakistan through Lahore, Iran and Turkey to London. He told me stories in jail. You killed that man by hanging him, by giving a verdict, a false verdict.”
“You gave death sentences through such false verdicts, and today it's visible…” he said.
Dulu made the remarks at a discussion titled “Success of the Current Government”, organised by the Uttaranchal Jatiyatabadi Forum at the National Press Club in the noon.
“Every killing over the past 17 years will be tried. This time you will have to go to Kashimpur Jail. You will have to face the people of Bangladesh,” he said, apparently referring to Sheikh Hasina.
“Do not try to create panic among the people of Bangladesh through such threats and intimidation and disrupt the democratic process. This will never happen again,” Dulu said.
“We have come to power with the mandate of the people,” he said.
Addressing Sheikh Hasina, he said, “Make it clear in which December you will return to Bangladesh. Many such Decembers have passed in our lives. Many Ramadans, Eids, Pujas and monsoons have passed. Make it clear whether it is December 2030 or December 2050.”
He said the blood of nearly 2,000 students, ordinary people killed during the July uprising had not yet dried.
“Come, if you can. I said this the other day and I am saying it today. The blood of those whom you killed during July has not yet dried on the streets,” he said.
At the programme, Dulu also announced the formation of a 126-member partial committee of the North Bengal Nationalist Forum.
He congratulated the forum’s Convener Ishaq Ali, Vice-President Amanul Islam Shahan, former Dhaka University student leader and General Secretary Abbas Ali, Senior Joint General Secretary Moniruzzaman Nayan, former student leader Abdul Momin Sarkar and Organising Secretary Jony.
