Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Amir Dr Shafiqur Rahman on Friday, February 6, warned that no one would be allowed to loot banks in Bangladesh in the future if the 11-party alliance comes to power.
“Those who have stolen the country’s money and smuggled it abroad—if Allah Almighty gives us the opportunity to govern the country, that money will be recovered and deposited in the state treasury, InshaAllah,” he said.
Dr Shafiqur Rahman was speaking at an election rally organised by Baufal upazila unit Jamaat at Baufal Public Ground.
He said they would not engage in corruption and would not allow anyone else to do so.
“There will be no place for corruption in Bangladesh, and it will be uprooted,” he said.
Referring to case harassment, he said, “We hate litigation. Those who destroy the lives of innocent people by filing false cases will not be spared. Rather, if evidence is found, they will be brought under strict punishment.”
“Development will begin from the most deprived and oppressed areas. Recommendations of uncles and aunts will not work, and one’s place of residence will not matter. People’s rights will be determined based on justice and merit,” he added.
Dr Shafiqul Islam Masud, the nominated candidate of the 11-party electoral alliance for Patuakhali-2 (Baufal) constituency, DUCSU VP Shadik Kayem, and nominated candidates for four constituencies in Patuakhali district, among others, were present.
