Under Yunus’ rule, party leaders being persecuted in prisons: Awami League

Dhaka: Bangladesh’s Awami League came down heavily on the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government over the “brutal torture and killing” of the party leaders and activists inside prisons across the country.

The party alleged that “under the direct orders” of the Yunus administration, the Awami League leaders and activists are being “subjected to horrific torture and persecution inside prisons”.

“Acting on the instructions of the illegal and unconstitutional usurper government, prison officials have brutally tortured and killed many Awami League leaders and activists,” read a statement issued by the Awami League.

“We will not remain content with only condemning and protesting these incidents. At the same time, we sound a clear warning: the rule of the killer-fascist Yunus will be marked as a dark chapter in Bangladesh’s history. People with humanity will, through united struggle, deliver a crushing reply to this monstrous clique and bring forth the light of tomorrow,” the party stated.

Raising grave concerns, the party has repeatedly condemned and protested these inhuman and barbaric abuses under the Yunus regime. (IANS)
