Two hundred and fifty members of the Bangladesh Armed Forces serving under the STMKE unit have demanded to be reinstated in their jobs with the Kuwait Army. They made the appeal at a press conference held on Monday at the National Press Club, seeking the Prime Minister’s intervention to resolve their situation.
According to a written statement by Sergeant Ahsan Ullah, the soldiers had returned to Bangladesh on leave during the COVID-19 pandemic but were unable to go back to Kuwait due to international flight suspensions. The Army Headquarters’ PA Directorate had placed them on ‘home stay’ status with assurances of redeployment once conditions normalized. However, despite the pandemic easing, administrative complications and negligence within the STMKE cell prevented 557 personnel from resuming duty, leaving around 250 of them jobless for six years.
The affected soldiers stated that their families have been living in severe hardship for seven years and urged immediate humanitarian consideration from the Prime Minister.
