BNP’s latest blueprint to kill Joy: Obaidul

‘Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is plotting to murder Joy, the only son of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’

The Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Wednesday said this while talking to reporters at the Secretariat.

He said, ‘It is the latest blueprint to wipe out Bangabandhu’s future clan, and this was revealed as police rummaged through Shafik Rehman’s residence for related documents earlier in his presence’.

The Minister said, ‘Awami League doesn’t believe in violence. This party had been out of power for long 21 years but never resorted to violence.’

He also said they are not treating Shafik Rehman as guilty until the court convicts him.

Asked whether there is any political motive behind his arrest as alleged by many, Quader trashed it saying that his arrest was based on statements of several people convicted at a US federal court, where they mentioned his involvement, according to the FBI.
