Law will take its own course against criminals: PM
BAKU, Azerbaijan, Oct 26, 2019 (BSS) – Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina here today reissued a strong warning against the wrongdoers, saying that law will take its own course against those who will commit crimes.
“The law will take its own course against criminals whoever might be and whichever party they belong,” she said when expatriate Bangladeshis living in Azerbaijan called on her at Hotel Hilton Baku here this evening.
The prime minister said: “You’ve seen that it (action) is continuing. If any of our party man is indulged in crime, he or she is getting punishment instantly.”
Sheikh Hasina, also the Awami League President, said the criminals are just criminals. “We’ll see criminals as criminals and we’re trying to see that,” she said.
The prime minister thinks that to give lesson to others, it should start from own house. “I’m doing that (drive against corruption) and I’m continuing it,” she said.
Referring to unbridled corruption committed by the BNP-Jamaat government, she said there was no limit of graft during their five-year misrule.
Sheikh Hasina said a vested quarter is committing heinous crimes by spreading rumours on various issues.
