The threat against Mahmudur Rahman tantamount to a serious, mean and ugly threat against the freedom of press. It reminds of the BKSAL days when all the newspapers, except for four compliant ones, were banned and any aspiration of democracy was brutally strangled. During Mujib's reign of terror, between 1972 and 1975, more than 30 thousand patriots, according to many, were killed, BAL's plunder, as well as that of India, went on reckless and unabated and it created the man-made famine of 1974, which claimed, according to reports, 3 to 5 hundred-thousand lives. Mujib's rule was totally controlled by India, and he was helpless about it. He was in office, but not in power, as the power was in India's hands.
The present government was brought in power by India with support from the US and its allies, including their rubber stamp, the UN, only to serve India and its present allies. As the Amar Desh published a report of plunder through bribery, the government immediately took resort to intimidation. But this only exposes the government more.
Below is Khaleda's response to the threat:
