Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami will stage demonstrations across the country on Monday demanding the unconditional release of its ameer Motiur Rahman Nizami and nayebe Ameer Delwar Hossain Sayedee.

 

In a statement, party acting secretary general Dr Shafiqur Rahman announced the programme on Saturday.

 

“The government in a planned way has arranged a farce in the name of trial by filing false cases for so-called crimes against humanity against the Jamaat leaders to create a leadership vacuum in the party,” the statement reads.

 

It claimed that the charges brought against Sayedee in connection with crimes against humanity for which he was awarded capital punishment by a tribunal were cent percent false and fabricated.

 

The statement also claimed that party ameer Nizami was also given death sentence by a lower court in a ‘false’ case of 10-truck arms haul in Chittagong.

 

It said a case on ‘false charges of committing crime against humanity’ was also filed against Nizami to gain political revenge on him. “The case awaits verdict.”

 

“We announce a countrywide demonstration for Monday (April 21) demanding the unconditional release of Jamaat ameer and former minister Motiur Rahman Nizami and world famous holy Quran interpretator Delwar Hossain Sayedee,” Shafiqur Rahman said.
