BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has alleged that the killing of former Jubo Dal leader Azizur Rahman Mosabbir was intended to put the current interim government in a difficult position. In a statement issued on Thursday afternoon, he said that the murder reflected a broader attempt by miscreants to destabilize the country and exploit the situation through violence and anarchy.

According to the statement, Mosabbir, former general secretary of Dhaka North Jubo Dal, was shot dead on Wednesday night. Fakhrul condemned the killing as brutal and inhuman, expressing deep concern and grief. He claimed that such incidents were being repeated to embarrass the interim administration and called for strict action against those responsible.

Fakhrul urged people from all walks of life, regardless of political affiliation, to unite in defense of democracy and citizens’ safety. He warned that otherwise, opportunistic groups could endanger the nation’s existence. He demanded the immediate arrest and exemplary punishment of the perpetrators.
