[ALOCHONA] Re: Gen. Moeen influenced clearing Ershad of gold smuggling charges?

Dear Alochok Emanur

May I request you not to brand anybody opponent or for that matter
supporter of CTG. Inadvertently or advertently, you are not doing any
service to Bangladesh by doing that. If you thing that Mr. Chowdhury's
statement is not based on facts, come with factual evidences against
it. Instead you are talking of something which has nothing to do with
the subject matter.
