Hefajot’s ZUNAED BABUNOGORY’S “ CONFESSION” fits 100% to the charged already made by both the Awami rulers & the Police officers against theor political opponents.
This kind of getting forced confession has become the norm of this corrupt government that has destroyed states almost every institution by politicking it. Judiciary, Education and Law enforcing politicization has destroyed the very base of the structure of a just society. What wonder no person has any more trust in these institutions?
