Former Chief Prosecutor of the International Crimes Tribunal, Mohammad Tajul Islam, has called for legal action against actress Meher Afroz Shaon for her controversial remarks about the new Bangladesh achieved through the July Revolution. He made the appeal in a Facebook post on Thursday, criticizing Shaon for allegedly spreading propaganda labeling the revolution as terrorism.

In his post, Tajul Islam claimed that Shaon’s comments were linked to two incidents: the arson attack on the July Memorial in Netrakona and the abduction and assault of a July fighter by members of the banned student organization Chhatra League. He described both incidents as serious criminal offenses and accused Shaon of exceeding all limits with her statements.

Earlier, Shaon had posted on Facebook expressing joy that Netrakona, her in-laws’ hometown, was in the news following the two incidents. Her post sparked widespread debate and criticism on social media.
