Hasnat Abdullah, the chief organizer of the National Citizens Party, stated that there will be no leniency for corrupt individuals, extortionists, and bank looters. He made the remarks on Sunday, February 1, after the Supreme Court’s Appellate Division dismissed a petition filed by BNP-nominated candidate Manjurul Ahsan Munshi. Abdullah described the verdict as a judgment of the oppressed against the oppressor.

In a Facebook post the same day, Abdullah wrote that the people of Bangladesh had achieved victory in their fight against bank looters and loan defaulters. His comments came in response to the court’s decision, which he framed as a triumph for ordinary citizens over financial wrongdoing.

The statements reflect the National Citizens Party’s stance against corruption and financial crimes, emphasizing accountability and justice following the court’s ruling.
