Islami Andolan Bangladesh’s Secretary General, Principal Hafiz Maulana Yunus Ahmad, has accused the ruling BNP of destroying the political understanding that had developed among anti-fascist forces during previous regimes. Speaking at the party’s central committee meeting in Dhaka’s Purana Paltan on Tuesday, he alleged that since the BNP came to power, its activists have attacked Islami Andolan members, including incidents of murder and violence in different areas.

He cited the killing of an Islami Andolan worker in Patuakhali’s Kalapara, allegedly by local BNP leaders, and a recent attack on Niamati Union Parishad Chairman Humayun Kabir in Bakerganj, Barishal. The party expressed strong condemnation and anger over these incidents. Yunus Ahmad urged BNP’s top leadership to control their activists, ensure accountability, and take organizational action against those involved.

He warned that if BNP members continue old-style politics similar to the previous fascist regime, the public will resist again, and the BNP will have to bear responsibility for damaging political harmony.
