Time comes to unmask masterminds of Aug 15 killing, PM tells JS

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today told the parliament that now the time has come to unearth the identities of the masterminds behind the August 15 carnage in 1975.

“Now, time has come to find out the masterminds who were behind the plot of August 15 carnage. I don’t know whether we could complete unmasking those behind this killing, but I think at least one day it will come out. One day it will be published,” she said, Report BSS

Sheikh Hasina said “This conspiracy is not for mere killings, rather this plot is against my country, this conspiracy is against my independence, this plot is against our ideology.”

The Leader of the House said this joining the general discussion on a proposal passed in the parliament to show hatred towards the clique of murderers and conspirators who killed Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. The MPs took oath under the leadership of his daughter Sheikh Hasina to thwart all conspiracies being hatched by the ghosts of the clique.

The premier said at least it needs to unmask the conspirators of this carnage before the nation. “I think the faces must be revealed one day,” she said.

Sheikh Hasina, however, said that she knows many things, but she is moving ahead her life bearing all of these sad chapters. “I remain alive as ‘neelkantha ”.

She added that she doesn’t tell anything because her only goal is to bring smile on the faces of the destitute people. “When I would be able to do it successfully then many things would be revealed.”

The Prime Minister said, “I’ve been doing politics taking all on board. I didn’t go to take revenge against anyone. I believe in the trial process. I relied on the trial process,” adding that her only goal is to continue working for the people of the country with all her strengths, not taking revenge.

Mentioning that those who had directly been involved in the killing were tried, she said efforts are going on to bring the fugitive convicted killers back.

Coming down heavily on the critics of her government, Sheikh Hasina said, “What an unfortunate thing for us! Some people are there who always criticize us and don’t see anything good no matter how much work we do. They will spread propaganda.”

When the international organisations remark that Bangladesh is at no risk, some people are there inside the country who are misleading the people, she said.

The Premier said that today Bangladesh is getting dignity in the entire world, but some local people are carrying out propaganda to demean the country and mislead the people.

“It seems that the ghosts of the anti-liberation and the August 15 killers are still active in the country,” she said.

Treasury bench member RAM Obaidul Muktadir Chowdhury placed the proposal in the House under the section-147 of the rules of procedure. Later, the proposal was adopted unanimously by a voice vote following a discussion on it.

In the proposal, the lawmaker said, “The parliament is in opinion that we’re expressing deep hatred towards the hateful gang of murderers and conspirators who cruelly and mercilessly killed Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and most of his family members on August 15, 1975. But the ghosts of the plotters have not still become inactive. Even today they are continuing their despicable activities to return to state power and turn the wheel of history back. Their despicable plot should not be allowed to succeed. Standing at the foot of history, remembering all the martyrs including Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the greatest personality of Bengali, with a humble heart and respect, and taking an oath to thwart all the plots under the leadership of Bangabandhu’s younger daughter, Sheikh Hasina, in the 19th session of the 11th Parliament, let this be firm declaration.”
