Bangladesh PM Hasina narrowly escapes bomb blast

DHAKA: Bangladesh Prime Minister Shiekh Hasina today had a narrow escape when several bombs exploded in a busy commercial area here minutes after her convoy passed through it.

Several crude bombs exploded in Dhaka's Karwan Bazar only 10 minutes after Hasina's convoy passed the area. Hasina was on her way to address a rally organised by the ruling Awami League in the capital's Suhrawardy Udyan, to mark the anniversary of the historic public address by the Father of the Nation Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in 1971.

One police official received minor injuries in the blasts.

"But the official, ASI Mahbub, is fine and is still on duty," bdnews24online quoted a police official as saying.

The blasts occurred amid an ongoing transport blockade and a shutdown across Bangladesh, enforced by the Opposition BNP and its allies.

Bomb blasts and arson attacks have become frequent in Bangladesh during the blockade that started on January 5 and shutdowns that the 20-Party alliance led by BNP has been enforcing since the beginning of February.

More than 100 people have died in the past two months, mostly in fire-bombings. Many more have been injured.

The BNP-led strike aims to force the Hasina-government to hold fresh elections a year after the controversial elections last year which the BNP had boycotted demanding a neutral caretaker government to oversee the polls. AR ABH

If Kha leda is a patriot. She should meet Hasina with a bomb vest. Then blow both. End of story instead burning BD.

The Jamatis are ramping up their efforts to destabilize the country it seems.

PDF jamatis might get what they wished for - all political opponents destroyed. Sharia law can then follow and the country turned into another Syria. I hope they will not attempt to escape from it to the horrible, modern west after that.

Hanging one person after a trial (albeit not to international standards) with the support of 10's of thousands of protestors is hardly the same as this indiscriminate terrorism.

And trust me violence comes easy to none more than Jamatis.

Some body read @fallstuff comments about their female PM's yesterday!!

The reason the AL is allowing the BNP-Jamati to cause soo much havoc is because they understand the implications of doing so. In basic: as BNP-Jamati go about their business throwing petrol bombs, etc. they understand, the mass public would dislike them for doing so and hence have a low voting turn out. To be honest, I dislike this two party system we need a few more strong contenders who can take the helm.

She is alive and kicking !!! So is Khaleda !!

There is no such news anywhere from BD. If someone has a link, please post it. If not then this is overactive evil Indian imagination !!

In any event, a PM motorcade is miles away in a few minutes, as the traffic in the road is cleared for unhindered travel.

Dear friend, let me put things into perspective for you:

Do you know how many people have been hanged in Bd in the last 3 years?
2 people.

And one of those was a man who murdered his wife and child.

The Death Penalty in Bangladesh

Jamati terrorists on the other hand have killed dozens in the same period. The jamatis paint a picture of an oppressive, 'kafir' regime on a killing spree - but the facts show otherwise.

Please beware of mullah propaganda.
