Bangladesh Violence Linked to BNP-Jamaat Actions

Recent violence in Bangladesh, linked to student quota protests, has been attributed to the BNP-Jamaat alliance, which is accused of unleashing widespread terror, including killings and property destruction. Foreign Minister Hasan Mahmud condemned the actions of these groups, claiming they exploited the student movement for nefarious purposes, resulting in chaos that surpasses historical brutality. He pledged that all involved in the violence would be brought to justice, noting the availability of video evidence. Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader echoed these sentiments, asserting that the BNP-Jamaat is solely responsible for the unrest and calling their demand for an international investigation an attempt to evade accountability. The violence has led to significant destruction in the capital, including attacks on key infrastructures and police forces. Government officials have urged students to remain cautious and not fall prey to manipulation by opposition groups.
