- ১ জুলাই ২০১৭
2013 bus burning allegation levelled against AL MP
A bus of Bihanga Paribahan was “exceptionally” set ablaze in 2013 and BNP was blamed by the government for that incident without any proper investigation.
Now the fact behind the attack has come to fore, as an Awami League leader has confessed the role of his colleague Pankaj Debnath who set his own bus afire to seek sympathy and a candidacy of Awami League on January 5, 2014, election.
Case 02: BAL activists arrested with handmade grenades
Two activists of ruling Awami League’s student wing were arrested in connection with creating panic at Comilla railway station blasting homemade grenades on the platform.
The names of the duo are- Nasir and Shipon. Nasir is a student of Comilla Victoria College.

Witness said the two blasted cocktails on the platform and tried to flee the scene.
Case 03: Political identity of arrested miscreants concealed (1)

Three people with small arms and bullets were arrested from the vicinity of Suhrawardy Udyan 12th January 2015, where Prime Minister Sheikh spoke on the day at an Awami League rally commemorating the homecoming of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
All three arrestees claimed to be Awami League activists, and that their weapons were licensed. The arrests were made after the proceedings of the rally had begun.
Despite tight security, people with guns were arrested, and crude bombs were blasted in front of Bangla Academy and Shaheed Minar, places close to the rally venue.
Police, acting upon information, arrested Abu Sayem Shahin, 36, and Jasim Uddin, 33, while carrying a pistol and 38 rounds of bullets from Joykali Mandir area and Anwar Hossain, 45, near the Bangla Academy premises with another pistol and 14 rounds of bullets.
• Sayem claimed he was an activist of Mohammadpur unit AL, and also a car trader.
• Jasim was supposedly his assistant.

The arrests were made between 3 pm to 4 pm. However, they were released as police receive confirmation about their Awami League identity.

Case 17: BAL men released hours after arrest with petrol bombs
On February 3rd, 2015 petrol bomb was hurled into a bus carrying passengers from Cox’s Bazar to Dhaka on the Chittagong highway at Chauddagram of Comilla.
It was the deadliest attack since the blockade begun on January 06. Seven killed on the spot, one day later the toll was raised to eight.
The bus that came under attack was escorted by police. Police claimed that some miscreants hurled the bomb all on a sudden and fled the scene before police could react.
In a raid conducted in the area after the attack took place, police arrested the ruling Awami League-baked youth organisation’s Jagnnath union unit president Manik its activist Babul in Keskir crossing area at Jagannathdighi at about 10:00 pm with petrol bombs and later took them to Chauddagram police station.
Surprisingly, the police who previously failed to provide necessary security to the passengers and could not hold the arsonists amid a shoot at sight order set free the Awami League men hours after the arrest. Though they were caught red handed with petrol bombs, police refused to launch any investigation regarding the matter.
This incident made it clear that the attack on Comilla bus was nothing but a false flag operation conducted by local Awami League men maintaining a liaison with the local police.
However, this is not the only incident of the false flag during the blockade. Many other arrests and suspicious attacks in front of police raise questions about who are behind these attacks actually.

The club house was traced with the help of Google Street View. The street view showed that the clubhouse is used as the office of local Awami League.
There is a signboard hanging on the wall of the club where one can read “Bangladesh Awami League, 27 No. South Agrabad Ward Office.
Google Street View shows the Awami League’s office of CGS Colony from where fire bombs were recovered.
