BNP's hands stained with blood: Quader

Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Saturday said there are still bloodstains on the hands of the leaders and workers of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP).

"I want to warn Mirza Fakhrul that there are huge bloodstains on your hands. (On the other hand), we did not kill any of you. We do not believe in the politics of murder and conspiracy," he said.

Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, said these while addressing the conference of Bangladesh Chhatra League's (BCL) combined private university branch at Krishibid Institution, Bangladesh (KIB) in the capital of Dhaka.

He further said BNP killed 21 thousand of Awami League leaders and activists, including Ahsanullah Master, Kibria, and Ivy Rahman.

About Zia's body, he said the body of Zia was brought to Dhaka from Chattogram but nobody saw that body.

"Can Mirza Fakhrul Saheb show a picture of the body? He can't," Quader added.

Referring to BNP leaders, Quader said: "Can you oust the government? Let's see if the people respond. Still, people have no response in this regard."

Mentioning that the movement of BNP means their internal quarrels, he went on to say that the movement of the leaders and workers of BNP means infighting and throwing chairs among themselves.

He said when BNP attacks police, the law enforcers have to retaliate for their self-defense.
