Sheikh Hasina issued the letter.
New Delhi: Recently, a coup was witnessed in India’s neighboring country Bangladesh. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina had to leave the country in a very short time and take refuge in India. For the first time after leaving the country, Sheikh Hasina has sent a message to the people of Bangladesh. Actually, a letter has surfaced in the name of Sheikh Hasina, which her son has shared from his ex account. Through this letter, Sheikh Hasina has demanded justice. Apart from this, Sheikh Hasina described the recent violence against Awami League leaders, activists and others as a “terrorist attack”. She said, ‘I demand that those involved in the recent killings and vandalism in Bangladesh be properly investigated and punished.’
family members were murdered
She wrote, “Brothers and sisters, on 15 August 1975, President of Bangladesh Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was brutally assassinated. I have deep respect for him. At the same time, my mother Begum Fazilatunnesa, my three brothers freedom fighter Captain Sheikh Kamal, freedom fighter Lieutenant Sheikh Jamal, Kamal and Jamal’s newly-wed bride Sultana Kamal and Rosy Jamal, my younger brother Sheikh Russel, who was just 10 years old, were brutally murdered.”
Tribute to the martyrs of 15 August
He further wrote, “My only uncle freedom fighter paralyzed Sheikh Nasir, President’s military secretary Brigadier Jamil Uddin, police officer Siddikur Rahman were brutally murdered. Freedom fighter Sheikh Fazlul Haque Moni and his pregnant wife Arju Moni, Agriculture Minister freedom fighter Abdul Rab Saraniabad, his 10-year-old son Arif 13-year-old daughter Baby, 4-year-old grandson Sukant, brother’s son freedom fighter journalist Shaheed Saraniabad, nephew Rentu and many others were brutally killed. May the soul of all those martyred on 15 August rest in peace and my tribute to the martyrs.”
Condolences to those who lost their lives in violence
Hasina further wrote, “Many people have lost their lives in the vandalism, arson and violence in the name of the movement since July. I pray for the peace of their souls. My condolences are with those who, like me, are living with the pain of losing their loved ones. I demand that those involved in these murders and vandalism be identified and punished.”
We are serving you
He further wrote, “Dear countrymen, we two sisters dedicated the house that holds the memory of the brutal killings that took place in Dhanmondi Bangabandhu Bhavan on August 15, 1975, to the people of Bengal. A memorial museum was built. From the common people of the country to the dignitaries of the country and abroad have visited this house. This museum is a memorial of independence. It is very sad that the memory that was the basis of our survival has been burnt to ashes. We are serving you, the purpose of which is to bring a smile on the faces of the suffering people of Bangladesh, to keep the memory of the loss of your loved ones alive in your hearts. You have also started getting its auspicious fruits. Bangladesh has attained the status of a developing country in the world.”
Insulted the blood of millions of martyrs
She said, “Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, under whose leadership we got self-respect as an independent nation, our identity and an independent country, has been insulted. The blood of millions of martyrs has been insulted. I want justice from the countrymen. I appeal to you to observe the National Mourning Day on August 15 with due dignity and seriousness. Offer flowers and prayers at Bangabandhu Bhaban and pray for the salvation of all souls. May Allah bless the people of Bangladesh. Joy Bangla Joy Bangabandhu.”
