The rise of a modern terrorist party in Bangladesh disguised in the pretence of secularism

The name ‘Awamileague’ stands for party of people, but in recent history they have completely gone off from the ideology of their founding father, from a party of people to a party of terrorist, fascist tyrannical dictator. It is said by many people that modern Awamileague party by all its action and characteristics has become like Italian Mafia gang run by one family. They have similar structure and operational method as the Mafia. If any of their opponents become too dangerous for them, they would abduct them, kill them, or send to them some of their loyal armed police, who will bunch them in to a car and take them to their torture chamber in their police station and handicap them for life. Even within their rank and file, many Awamileague leaders are afraid to speak against Mujibs family for fear of reprisal. The difference between Italian Mafia and Awamileague is that, the Mafia has a private army outside state control, and to some extend it is always hiding from the state law enforcers, and are afraid of them, but the Awamileague government in Bangladesh has a state private army within a state, which is immune from prosecution, and it uses its authority to terrorise its population and political opponent with impunity. This army of terrorist is directly control by Sheikh Hasina and her family.

One may be wondering how a country’s Prime Minister could be unaccountable to the public, and how was it that she was elected to power with public support. As I said in my title, Awamileague fooled the people by disguising themselves with the label of secularism, and myriads of fancy words such as party of freedom, party of liberation, and a party against war crimes. But even this would not have been enough to give them brute majority in the parliament, so under false promises, they made alliances with Gen Hussain Muhammad Ershad’s Jatiyo Party, promising him the office of the president, and many parliamentary seats, they made alliances with other leftist and rightist party’s promising them good governance and rule of law, but even this too was not enough, so they promised India, and the USA of unconditional cooperation in commerce and regional security, if they could convince General Moyeen U Ahmed, who was the caretaker government de-facto head to rig the election for them, so a two third majority could be given to them. India gladly helped them with money and men as was reported many times by the world famous magazine ‘The Economist’. What is surprising is that apart from India getting all that Sheikh Hasina had promised them, none of the other got much out of her other than a few bits and pieces. USA began to lose confidence in her once she started to show her real face in consolidating absolute power and beginning to demonise Nobel Laureate DR Yunus with the intention of stripping him from Grameen Bank directorship and capturing the 1 billion dollar Bank for the poor, which he had founded under the principle of micro credit. Dr Yunus is now penniless and his bank is robbed from him, and placed under her government control, so slowly the money could be stolen to finance Sheikh Hasina’s family empire.
 

The USA realized their mistake when Sheikh Hasina attacked DR yunus over his Grameen Bank. The former USA secretary of state Hilary Clinton made a phone call to Sheikh Hasina to highlight their concern about DR Yunus. Former President Clinton was a good friend of DR younus, and very much admired Dr yunus micro credit concept, so demonising Dr yunus by Sheikh Hasina personally hurt the Clintons family. Secretary clinton phoned Hasina to express their concern about DR yunus, she pointed out that matter related to Dr yunus was very much disliked in the USA government. So as a reminder of their favour to Hasina, secretary Clinton pointed out how Hasina was helped to come to power. The following is an extract of that conversation leaked in the media:

Hillary: “Madame Prime Minister (Sheik Hasina), I thought I would not have to go that far, unfortunately, I was wrong. I hope you know as much we know, how your government came to power. Don’t forget that we helped you congratulating you after the election, terming it as free and fair. You know Prime Minister, how this election result was pre-arranged at the behest of our good friend in New Delhi. We acted the way they suggested us. And please don’t forget that Gen. Moyeen, who brought you to power, now in the USA and perhaps, we now know, more than you could possibly imagine. Prime Minister, I am not saying that we will disown you soon, I am just trying to place issues in the order of history demands it”.

Hasina: “Madame Secretary (Clinton), we are aware of your support and assistance. We will do all we can to keep you happy. Don’t worry, we noted your point. Now let me know when you are coming to visit my country.”

In spite of a promise, Sheikh Hasina never lived to it, and eventually sacked DR Yunus from the Grameen Bank, and it is now in Hasina’s government control. USA in the modern history had made many mistakes, and I don’t know how many more mistakes they had to make before they stop interfering with other countries internal affairs. If these two countries, India, and USA had kept their nose away from Bangladesh internal affairs, Sheikh Hasina could not have imposed so much misery and injustice to the people of Bangladesh.

Once Awamileague came to power, Sheikh Hasina made sure only Mafia Style members of parliament was chosen as her ministers, or those who had been extremely loyal, almost submitting to her like slaves. Then she arranged the massacre of Army officers in Pilkhana, who she thought would be potential danger to her authority, with the help of Indian RAW. Then she systematically appointed her loyal civil servant, judges, police, and some top Army officers in state institution. Once this was complete, she began amending the constitution to fit her terrorist and fascist mentality. She removed the provision of caretaker government from the constitution so that she will stay in power for life. According to constitution expert, Bangladesh constitution has become a written party manifesto rather than the country’s guiding principle representing people’s aspiration.

Once all her power was consolidated, she began to suppress her opposition, especially Bangladesh Jamati Islam, and Bangladesh BNP of Begum Zia, Both party members were abducted, killed, jailed, and tortured unlike anything that we witnessed in the past forty years of Bangladesh history. Democracy only existed in name and secularism was only a mask to fool the west, Awamileague began acting like a terrorist gang killing Muslims and none Muslims alike, their killing spree peaked when they killed unarmed sleeping Hifazot man in Dhaka Shapla Chottor on the night of 5th of May. This killing has been documented by International Human Rights organization, and Bangladeshi Human Rights Organization ‘ODHIKAR’.  Adilur Rahman, the director of Odhikar was arrested soon after publishing that report against the government. Their website can be visited at http://odhikar.org.

Today Bangladesh Awamileague is continuing to terrorise its population, disrespecting and rejecting the opposition demand for Sheikh Hasina to step down and to restore the caretaker government provision, so that a credible, free and fare election could be held. Bangladesh constitution is longer a document of law, but it has become a family note book for Sheikh Hasina to write and delete as she sees fit. Her son Joy has recently joined her as a second lieutenant to fool the west again by his lies about rise of Islamic fundamentalist and terrorism. He is constantly consulting with India in violation of loyalty to Bangladesh and in effect colluding with the Indian to come to power again by silencing any international opposition, destroying the political party’s of Bangladesh that opposes Awamileague hegemony and terrorism. Awamileague has also formed a media group that acts as a cover for their wrong. These electronic and print media group are known to the opposition as information terrorist group. Their only job is to distort the fact, and carry out propaganda for the Awami government. The world must wake up to a new Hitler that terrorises its population under the pretence of secularism. Bangladesh Awamileague should be listed as a terrorist party by the UN unless it desists in terrorising and killing its political opponent.
