GOP leader Abu Hanif has accused the Awami League of committing mass killings during the July uprising, claiming that many of those responsible are still roaming freely. “Some people are even providing them shelter,” he said, adding that this situation exists in Kishoreganj as well.

Hanif alleged that leaders from both new and old political parties are protecting those who opened fire on students and civilians, often making deals involving large sums of money to shield these individuals from justice. “We demand that these killers be arrested without delay,” he asserted.

He further accused a section of the party’s advisory council of being agents of Western interests, emphasizing that the July uprising was not only against the Awami League but also against India’s influence in Bangladesh.
