The detained Awami League president Sheikh Hasina on Tuesday said the people who were harassing her would need to go to her some day.
Hasina, also a former prime minister, gave the warning as she talked with her lawyers and relations in a makeshift courtroom on the Jatiya Sangsad complex after appearing in the special judge’s court for the hearing in the framing of charges in the barge-mounted power plant corruption case.
‘The people who are now harassing me must keep in mind that I am daughter of Bangabandhu and they will need to come to me some day,’ she was quoted by one of her counsels as saying.
Sticking to her guns, Hasina reaffirmed her determination to contest the next parliamentary elections defying any ‘pressure’ or ‘conspiracy’ by any quarters.
‘As the Almighty Allah is with me and so are the people, I cannot disregard people’s unflinching confidence in me. I must contest the elections. I hope people will elect me again to serve the country,’ she was quoted as saying by a lawyer.
Hasina apprehended that she would not get justice under the present authorities, but said, ‘I will not bow to anybody under any pressure.’
