She says it is ‘unacceptable’ and ‘unexpected’.

“The war crimes verdict was executed following all legal procedures. There is no scope for any country or quarter to condemn (the execution),” she told reporters after a function at the National Museum auditorium on Sunday.

Demonstrations and protests have taken place across Bangladesh since Pakistan’s National Assembly adopted the resolution in the wake of Quader Molla’s execution.

Bangladesh’s foreign ministry summoned the Pakistan High Commission in Dhaka and sought an explanation.

The youth-driven Ganajagaran Mancha marched to the Pakistan High Commission to protest but was stopped by police. They have always favoured capital punishment for war criminals.

Pakistan’s flag and effigies of several leaders of that country were also burnt across Bangladesh to protest the move.

A spokesperson for Pakistan’s foreign ministry issued a statement on Friday saying that adopting the resolution in Parliament did not mean ‘interfering in Bangladesh’s internal matter’.

  1. Taliban has again threaten to blow up Bengali embassy in Islamabad if the hanging of Islamic leaders contiues in Bangladesh: ne Lawyer in Dhaka said, “We are really worried Taliban might start killing our Bengali people in Pakistan, estimated to be 470,000 & our Mission in the Middle East & Europe might as well come under attack by the most ruthless Taliban if it is not announced by Hasina, the Indian poodle that no more Bengali Muslim political leader would be hanged and Hasina’s DE-ISLAMIZATION PROGRAMME would also be stopped. De-Islamization of this country and to kiil the Islamic leader HAD NEVER BEEN IN THE “SHUIMOHAN” MOST SECRED/DIVIDE constitution of Bangladesh. It has been an theist agenda funded and inspired by India and incorporated by poorly educated Hasina”. Monju Munshi:Dhaka 21.12.13
