Pakistan is a “rogue state” that refuses to acknowledge its dues to Bangladesh, Finance Minister AMA Muhith has said.


He said this in Parliament on Monday in reply to a question by Awami League’s Fazilatun Nesa.

“It is difficult to say if that rogue state will change its mindset in future to return Bangladesh’s assets,” Muhith said.

He said a lot of property was to be divided between the two countries. “But those with whom we lived for 23 years behaved like barbarians. They lacked human decency.”

In 1977, the foreign secretaries of Bangladesh and Pakistan had agreed in a meeting to examine the dues the two countries owed each other.

But Pakistan had shied away from holding talks despite prodding by Bangladesh, former foreign minister Dipu Moni told Parliament in 2011.

She had said the process had gained some momentum after the Awami League came to power.

Moni had said Bangladesh would keep up diplomatic efforts despite lack of Pakistani response, but there has been little tangible progress.

Muhith said Pakistan had not yet acknowledged Bangladesh’s claims. “But we are trying to recover whatever is due to us. Our representatives never fail to raise this issue with them whenever the opportunity arises.”

But he also said not all governments in Bangladesh had pursued the matter, which had often been put on the back-burner during talks.

“We are trying to bring it to the fore again,” he said.

So traitors and terrorists who revolted against the state in 1971 with the help of arch enemy India are calling other rouges ?

 

[HttpError]

Look at that cartoon's facial expressions. BD was,is and will remain always insignificant to Pakistan. We had nothing to share apart from religion no get ever it please. We have no connection with you guys we are completely different just like how different we are from Indians. Bd and Indians are 99% same so it is better you stick with them and if you will not stop whining (in fact that is your favorite past time). We also have other means.

Awami League has no moral ground to stand on because what they accuse Pakistan of doing in 1971. They themselves are doing it against their political rivals. They come to government through shady elections and killing their rivals! Have some shame Awami League !


Bangladesh must investigate deaths and release prisoners held in opposition crackdown
8 January 2015, 00:00 UTC



Bangladeshi authorities must investigate the killing of protesters and release prisoners – including a prominent journalist and an opposition leader – arrested this week as part of an apparent crackdown against the opposition Bangladesh National Party (BNP), Amnesty International said.



Two people were reported killed on Wednesday night during clashes between police and BNP supporters in the southern district of Noakhali. At least six people have been killed in protests since Monday.



“The government of Bangladesh has a duty to launch an immediate, thorough and independent investigation into these deaths and bring those responsible to justice,” said Abbas Faiz, Bangladesh Researcher at Amnesty International.



The unrest in Bangladesh comes a year after a disputed election on 5 January 2014 that brought to power the current Awami League government, led by Sheikh Hasina



The opposition boycotted the election. On the anniversary of the vote this year, the BNP leader, Khaleda Zia, urged supporters to take to the streets and enforce a transport blockade.



Police have reportedly prevented Khaleda Zia from leaving BNP offices in Dhaka since 5 January.



Earlier this week, the police also arrested Abdus Salam, chairman of the Ekushey TV channel, and Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, the BNP’s Acting Secretary General. Several party activists have also been arrested.



There are several indications that the charges against Abdus Salam and Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir are politically motivated.



Abdus Salam was arrested on Tuesday, a few hours after Ekushay TV had broadcast a speech by Khaleda Zia’s son, Tarique Rahman. He has been charged under the Pornography Act, stemming from a complaint last November by a woman who said her reputation had been damaged by a programme about prostitution.



A court subsequently banned the media from reporting speeches by Tarique Rahman, who lives in self-imposed exile in the UK. According to local media, Ekushey TV may also face prosecution for broadcasting the speech.



BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir was also arrested this week, after attending a gathering organised by his party.



According to a police official, he had been detained on suspicion of involvement in arson attacks on buses – allegedly by BNP supporters.



However, there is no evidence Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has advocated for or engaged in violent acts.



“These arrests represent clear violations of the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly,” said Abbas Faiz.



“The Bangladeshi authorities must demonstrate their commitment to international human rights law by ensuring no one is arbitrarily detained, harassed or intimidated for exercising their rights.”



Background

Amnesty International has frequently highlighted the shrinking space for freedom of expression in Bangladesh. Newspapers and TV editors have been under severe pressure not to publish or broadcast the views of government critics.



On the anniversary of the 2014 election, the police announced a ban on all demonstrations, saying it wanted to prevent clashes between government and opposition supporters.



Despite the ban, clashes have been taking place between supporters and opponents of the BNP. Several buses and cars have been damaged or set alight in Dhaka and several other cities in the past few days. Opposition supporters have been accused of carrying out the attacks.



During 2014, more than 100 people were killed during opposition protests, in some cases after the police opened fire. None of these deaths are believed to have been properly investigated and prosecuted.

So any Awami League or Nationalist pithoo wants to blame Pakistan for what they did in 1971, they should introspect that why they are doing the same things right now these days
