Bangladesh will burn, says Jamaat

The Jamaat opposed the birth of Bangladesh in 1971 and its active role against the liberation was highlighted a multiple times in verdicts against its top leaders.

The ICT-1 verdict that sentenced Jamaat guru Ghulam Azam to 90 years in prison termed the party as a ‘criminal organisation’.

The two war crimes tribunals have found eight Jamaat and two BNP leaders guilty in nine cases of atrocities in 1971.

In the final verdict on Molla, the Supreme Court had sentenced him to death. The government says sentence will be executed only after it received the full verdict.

“We want to warn that the 56,000 square miles will be set on fire once any move is made with the verdict on Jamaat Assistant Secretary General Abdul Quader Molla,” said Dhaka City Jamaat Assistant Secretary Shafiqul Islam Masud on Friday.

Verdict on Jamaat-e-Islami’s chief Motiur Rahman Nizami is expected any day as the International Crimes Tribunal-1 finished its hearing on Nov 13.

Bangladesh would be shaken if Nizami was punished even for a minute, Masud also said at BNP-led 18-Party alliance’s rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in capital Dhaka.
