JHENAIDAH, Dec 5, 2025 (BSS) - Attorney General (AG) Md Asaduzzaman today 
said that questioning whether Tarique Rahman is a Bangladeshi voter is 
irrelevant, as he sought to contest elections in the country.

"If he (Tarique Rahman) wanted to take part in the elections, it must be 
presumed that he is a citizen and a voter of Bangladesh," he said while 
addressing an anniversary event of the Haji Welfare Association at Shailkupa 
Government Degree College field this morning.

The Attorney General said the trial of the July mass killing case is 
underway. "We have taken all necessary measures to ensure an expeditious 
trial. There is no scope to disrupt or delay the judicial process," he added.

The anniversary programme, organised by the Shailkupa Upazila Haji Welfare 
Association, was presided over by its president Alhaj Md Lutfor Rahman Tulu. 
Hajjis and worshippers from different parts of the upazila attended the 
event.

A special doa and munajat was offered seeking the recovery of Begum Khaleda 
Zia, chairperson of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) who served as the 
Prime Minister of Bangladesh three times.
