National Citizens Party (NCP) convener Nahid Islam has strongly criticized recent remarks by Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed regarding border killings, calling them offensive and insulting. In a statement sent to the media on June 6, he said the minister’s comments about killings by Indian forces at the border were shameful for the nation. Nahid Islam demanded that the minister immediately withdraw his statement.
He noted that three days had passed without any clarification or withdrawal from Salahuddin Ahmed, nor any condemnation from the government, implying that the minister’s position might reflect the government’s official stance. According to Nahid Islam, the home minister attempted to narrow the definition of “border killing” by arguing that deaths occurring outside the zero line should not be considered as such. Nahid Islam countered that international law, including the Geneva Conventions and UN human rights principles, strictly prohibits unlawful or excessive use of lethal force against civilians.
He further recalled that a similar controversy arose in 2020 when then–foreign minister A.K. Abdul Momen made comparable remarks, which also drew criticism. Nahid Islam warned that such conciliatory positions toward India raise serious concerns and urged immediate retraction of the statement.
