HASAN-HEFAZAT
Those who make statements in favour of hypocrisy also hypocrites: Hasan
DHAKA, April 22, 2021 (BSS) – Information and Broadcasting Minister
and Awami League Joint General Secretary Dr Hassan Mahmud today said
those who make statements in favour of hypocrisy and liars also fall
into that category.
While responding to a question about Nagorik Oikya convener
Mahmudur Rahman Manna’s demand for the release of Hefazat leaders, he
made the comment after addressing a webinar from his Minto Road
official residence here.
The AL sub-committee on forest and environment affairs arranged the
webinar titled ‘Restore Our Earth: Bangladesh Perspectives and the Way
Forward’ marking the World Earth Day, an official press release said.
Hasan said that Hefazat leaders are spoiled and it is proved today
as they promptly announced the legitimacy of Mamunul’s immoral and
un-Islamic acts in the light of Islam.
At the same time, he said, Hefazat men carried out vandalism across
the country, set fire on homes of innocent people, their properties,
vehicles and land offices, conducted attacks on fire stations and rail
and police stations, and removed walls on highways under their
leadership, but they denied all the things.
“They have denied the truth…so those who make statements in
favour of the liars, and spoiled and hypocritical leadership also fall
into that category,” the AL joint general secretary said.
