"Awami League leaders are making unguarded remarks to belittle Tarique Rahman out of their anger. Obaidul Quader's comment involving him (Tarique) with attack on Bangladesh High Commission office in London is baseless and fabricated and," said BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi.
Speaking at a press briefing, he said Tarique never asked his party men to indulge in violence or show any inhuman attitude towards his political opponents.
On Monday, Quader, also the Road Transport and Bridges Minister, claimed that Tarique was involved with attack of the Bangladesh mission office in London.
