United Nations Resident Representative’s Human Rights Advisor, Huma Khan, paid a courtesy call on Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman. She was accompanied by Barrister Tajrian Akram Khan during the meeting.
Huma Khan inquired about Dr. Rahman’s health condition and wished him a full recovery. She also expressed her gratitude for his address at the UN Human Rights Council’s commemorative event on July 29, which focused on remembrance and accountability.
The discussion covered a wide range of issues, including the current human rights situation in Bangladesh, enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and the demand for justice. When asked about Jamaat’s proposed reform programs, Dr. Rahman provided a detailed briefing.
As a gesture of goodwill, the Jamaat chief presented the UN delegation with the 12-volume English edition of the party’s publication commemorating the “July Martyrs.”
