PM knows how to show humanity, Anisul tells pro BNP lawyers
PBC News: Regarding BNP’s demand to allow their ailing party chief Khaleda Zia’s treatment abroad, Law Minister Anisul Huq has said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina knows how to show humanity.
“We have no lack of humanity. We know how to show humanity and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina must know how to show humanity,” the Law Minister told a group of pro-BNP lawyers when they met him at his office at Secretariat in Dhaka on Tuesday.
The leaders of Jatiyatabadi Ainjibi Forum handed over a memorandum to the minister asking the government to allow BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia’s treatment abroad.
The Law Minister further said, “I would like to remind you that when Khaleda Zia was released following a plea of her family, the Prime Minister then considered the matter on humanitarian ground.”
No demand was made the then time of Khaleda’s release but she (Sheikh Hasina) released her own initiative, added Anisul Huq.
He further said, “Although you have come from Jatiyatabadi Ainjibi Forum but we are in a forum. We were all but colleagues at one time. Although my license is suspended but I am still one of you.”
