Re: [mukto-mona] Follow up: Gazipur – Sahebabd Incident

Dr. Bain said,
".... In the USA , when a black person becomes a crime victim, his/her lawyer looks for the possibility of that being categorized as a racial hate crime. Because hate crimes are more severely punishable. In our part of the world, much of the intelligentsia considers it more normal for minorities to be victims in the hands of criminals from the majority community. Corruption and crime are pretty normally acceptable phenomena. And it is considered normal for the weak to be victims. I am really frustrated about our birthplace. ...."

 

Respomse:

 

You are right; we are all frustrated seeing the lack of response from the present as well as the past governments of Bangladesh. Bangladeshi governments have always been playing a double role in dealing with minority issues. They say something in public, and do something different in private. They all say there is no minority in Bangladesh; we are all Bangladeshi. Wonderful statement! Isn't it? The truth is, they have never taken minority problems seriously. To them, there is no problem. It does not exist.

Most people, who run the government machines, wear secular outfit to hide their communal inner-self. If they could hear themselves, just once, what they are saying and what they are doing, Bangladesh would have been a much better place today. The administration promises security and they believe them just to realize that it's all pack of lies and conspiracies. Can you imagine, if anything like this could ever happened here to a victim under government protection. Could you imagine what kind of public outcry that would generate? Is anybody crying for these victims? No. The bottom line is, as religious minorities, they all deserve it.
