RANGPUR, Aug 19, 2019 (BSS) – Freedom fighters, professionals and civil
society members here have favoured formation of a high-powered commission to
unveil masks of conspirators at home and abroad behind assassination of
Bangabandhu.
They put maximum importance on bringing back fugitive killers of Father of
the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman for executing court’s verdict
against them to stop conspiracies against the country, its people and
sovereignty.
“The anti-liberation forces are still hatching conspiracies to hinder
progress when the nation is realising Bangabandhu’s dream of building a Sonar
Bangla,” former Commander of Rangpur district unit of Bangladesh Muktijoddha
Sangshad (BMS) Mosaddek Hossain Bablu told BSS.
He strongly favoured formation of a commission to probe into assassination
of Bangabandhu to find out masterminds behind the carnage and make
investigation report public so that the nation and world as a whole could
know real history.
“Assassination of Bangabandhu and most of his family members was a deep-
rooted conspiracy of the defeated anti-liberation forces of 1971 to reverse
independence, sovereignty and spirit of the War of Liberation,” Bablu added.
Former Kurigram district unit Commander of BMS Sirajul Islam Tuku said
common people were stunned on August 15 in 1975 listening to radio
broadcasting assassination of Bangabandhu and most of his family members by
some unruly army men.
“The killers of Bangabandhu and their local and alien conspirators wanted
to reverse our hard-earned independence that we achieved by defeating the
Pakistani Army and winning the War of Liberation,” he said.
Thought trial of the killers of Bangabandhu was completed and some of the
killers were executed, but some others are still absconding and masterminds
behind the assassination remaining unidentified, he said.
“Formation of a high-powered commission has become a demand of the time to
investigate into assassination of Bangabandhu, the report should be made
public and all masterminds and conspirators must be exposed to justice,” Tuku
added.
Shawkat Ali Sarker, Bir Bikram, said Bangabandhu just engaged himself in
restructuring the war-torn nation in spirit of the War of Liberation when he
was assassinated at that crucial time of building the nation.
“To make our national sovereignty safer, the government should form a
commission to unveil masks of all masterminds behind assassination of
Bangabandhu,” said Shawkat, also chairman of Chilmari upazila in Kurigram.
General Secretary of Rangpur district unit of Ghatok-Dalal Nirmul Committee
Moazzem Hossain Lablu said the anti-liberation forces in collaboration with
their masterminds hatched conspiracy to assassinate Bangabandhu as part of a
deep-rooted conspiracy.
“The present government should form a commission for probing into
Bangabandhu’s assassination to unveils masks of all masterminds and bring
back fugitive killers of Bangabandhu for their quicker execution to free the
nation from the stigma,” Lablu said.
President of Rangpur Gobeshona Parishad Professor Mozammel Haque said the
anti-liberation conspirators assassinated Bangabandhu, the most popular world
leader of all time, stunning the nation and the whole world at dawn on August
15, 1975.
“The perpetrators wanted to bury spirit of the War of Liberation aiming at
reviving Pakistan by killing Bangabandhu and most of his family members,”
Professor Haque, also a researcher and former Treasurer of Begum Rokeya
University, said.
However, the nation has completed trial of the killers of Bangabandhu
foiling all conspiracies, executed most of them and the process of bringing
back absconding killers continues to execute them for freeing the country
from the stigma.
“Without unmasking masterminds behind assassination of Bangabandhu, the
nation will remain unknown about our true national history,” Professor Haque
said favoring formation of a stronger commission to unmask saboteurs.
President of Rangpur Chamber Mostafa Sohrab Chowdhury Titu said Bangladesh
is now on the highway of development to build a Sonar Bangla as dreamt by
Bangabandhu under leadership of his able daughter and Prime Minister Sheikh
Hasina.
“Bangladesh would become a developed country long ago if Bangabandhu was
alive,” he said.
Titu also stressed formation of an appropriate commission to unmask
masterminds of Bangabandhu killing and execution of his absconding killers to
build a developed Sonar Bangla.
