BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has accused four senior Awami League leaders of advising Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on orchestrating killings.
“Obaidul Quader, Anisul Huq, Salman F. Rahman, and Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal — these four masterminded every killing under Hasina’s direction,” Rizvi alleged, after visiting injured former JCD leader Dolon in Rupganj.
He further claimed that Hasina’s security adviser Tariq Siddique suggested killing some people to suppress the opposition movement. “Even leaked phone conversations expose how killings were ordered,” Rizvi said.
He alleged that 1,400 to 1,500 students and workers, including 142 JCD activists, have been killed, along with over 400 BNP activists. “The people no longer want to see this cycle of bloodshed under Hasina’s regime,” he added.
