Sue the Ahmeds, Hasina tells KhaledaDhaka, April 04 (bdnews24.com)--Prime minister Sheikh Hasina urged Khaleda Zia to sue Fakhruddin Ahmed and Moeen U Ahmed for their alleged misdeeds committed during the tenure of the military-controlled interim government. Hasina made appeal to the opposition leader during her unscheduled speech in parliament on Sunday after the BNP had staged a walkout led by Khaleda.
Khaleda had alleged that the ruling party was not initiating legal action against the two Ahmeds since the Awami League had made a secret deal with the interim government for going to power.
Addressing BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia, the prime minister said that she was efficient in filing cases and carrying out attacks. "It is better that you sue Fakhruddin-Moinuddin." Sheikh Hasina made the statements following BNP's walkout from parliament protesting against a bill endorsing pay hike of a number of top office bearers of the republic and the government including the president, prime minister, chief justice, speaker, ministers and MPs. "You have filed 10 cases against me," said Hasina.
The prime minister said that the judiciary was absolutely free and asked Khaleda to go ahead and sue the two Ahmeds. "We will not interfere at all."
Hasina continued, saying that it was the BNP that had made Moeen U Ahmed the army chief hoping that he would help her [Khaleda Zia] to rig the elections. "She made Gen Moeen army chief superseding 10 officers"
"And who made Fakhruddin Ahmed, the government of Bangladesh Bank?" asked the prime minister. "They are all her people," she said.
