Bikalpa Dhara Bangladesh president Prof Dr AQM Badruddoza Chowdhury has alleged Jatiya Party chairman HM Ershad was admitted to the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) forcibly.“Ershad was admitted to the CMH forcibly. This is undemocratic and contrary to the traditional political norms,” he said in a statement on Saturday.
The former President condemned the detention of Ershad and demanded his release immediately.
He said despite having disagreement with him, Ershad certainly is a politician and he has public support and lawmakers.
The behaviour of the government led by the Awami League that claims itself as a democratic party was not only undemocratic but also contrary to political decency.
He said with this act, the AL has brought disrespect to democratic behaviour.
The BDB chief said it was condemnable and unacceptable even if it was a pre-arranged dram staged under joint production of Ershad and the prime minister.
Meanwhile, Islamic Andolon Bangladesh (IAB) ameer Mufti Syed Rezaul Karim in a separate statement also demanded the release of HM Ershad.
The country is heading towards anarchy because of rigid stand of the government, he said in a separate statement.
The charmonair pir called upon the government to pave the way for holding an acceptable election by shunning its rigid stance. – Staff Reporter
