Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) President Dr. Colonel (Retd.) Oli Ahmed Bir Bikram has strongly condemned and protested the knife attack on July fighters Hasnat and Mahin in Chattogram. The assault took place at midnight on January 16 in Chandanaish upazila, reportedly after a press conference and human chain were organized against Jasim Bahini, a group linked to a cashier of Benazir and an accused in the July student murder case. The condemnation was issued in a statement sent to the media on Saturday.

In his statement, Colonel Oli said that the associates of the fallen fascist government have re-emerged and that the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) must take responsibility. He accused the BNP of sheltering individuals loyal to Hasina and oppressing innocent citizens. He urged the BNP to expel such individuals if it truly respects the July fighters.

Oli Ahmed added that attacking the July fighters is an insult to those who fought against fascism in Bangladesh and sacrificed their lives to ensure freedom and dignity for the people.
