Hefazat-e-Islam Bangladesh has strongly opposed the interim government's agreement to establish a United Nations Human Rights Commission office in Dhaka. In a joint statement, the group’s top leaders warned of stern programs if the deal isn’t canceled immediately. They argue the office is unnecessary for a peaceful country like Bangladesh and claim it serves foreign interests. Citing the 2013 Shapla Square crackdown, they criticized the UN’s silence on past human rights violations and urged the government to meet the demands of the "July Revolution."
