Hamidur Rahman Azad demands immediate release of Satkhira district Jamaat leader

Assistant Secretary General of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and former member of the Parliament Hamidur Rahman Azad has issued the following statement on 24th December, 2017 protesting and condemning the unlawful arrest of Satkhira district’s Kolaroa Upazila Jamaat Ameer and local Kamarkhali Dakhil Madrasa’s superintendent Maulana Osman Goni on last 23rd December.

“Police has unjustifiably arrested Satkhira district’s Kolaroa Upazila Jamaat Ameer and local Kamarkhali Dakhil Madrasa’s superintendent Maulana Osman Goni from his working place even without any arrest warrant. He has become the victim of government’s political repression.

Maulana Osman Goni is a renowned religious scholar. He has been detained unlawfully just to attain the ill-political interest of the government. His unjust arrest has exposed the fascist face of the government. I am calling upon my fellow countrymen to raise voice against the tyrannical rule and relentless oppression of the government.

Finally I am urging the authorities concerned to stop political terrorism and nationwide continuous arrest drive and also to release all the leaders and activists of Jamaat-e-Islami including Satkhira district’s Kolaroa Upazila Jamaat Ameer and local Kamarkhali Dakhil Madrasa’s superintendent Maulana Osman Goni immediately.”
