Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has warned of dire consequences if the assailants of two university students are not tried.
Two students of public universities in Mymensingh and Rajshahi were killed on Mar 1 and 4 respectively, allegedly over internal political feud.
Both of them were members of the ruling party’s student affiliate, Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL).

“The Prime Minister had earlier relinquished the post of BCL’s adviser due to the untoward activities of the students’ body. This time, she might not be able to live in the country because of it,” senior BNP leader Rafiqul Islam Miah told a party event on Monday.He accused the government of resorting to ‘state-terrorism’ by filing false cases against opposition activists.
“A total of 7,153 cases against Awami League activists, including the prime minister, have been withdrawn. Terrorists, corrupt people, women oppressor, including death row convicts were named in those cases. They are now roaming free,” said the BNP Standing Committee member.
