Govt carrying out mass killing thru\\\' cops and cadres: BNP

BNP spokesman Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Friday alleged that the government is carrying out ‘mass killing’ by using law enforcers like its party ‘cadres’. In a statement, Mirza Alamgir said, ‘The government which grabbed power by force through the January-5 farcical election has now got desperate and impatient as the whole nation is vocal against it. They’re now carrying out genocide by using law enforcers like their party cadres.’ Mirza Alamgir, also the BNP acting secretary general, said Satkhira’s Tala upazila unit BNP leader SM Biplob has been tortured to death by police and ruling party men. He said police picked up Biplob and shot him in the name of a gunfight before killing him through torture along with the local ruling party ‘cadres’. Protesting the killing, the BNP leader said Awami League can brutally kill people as killing and spreading lies are the habit of the party. He demanded the government immediately arrest the killers and mete out exemplary punishment to them, according to UNB.
