BNP is master of corruption, looting: Quader

Times Report Slamming BNP as the “master of corruption and looting,” Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Friday said the names of BNP leaders would top any list of corrupt individuals.

He said this at a press briefing at the Awami League President’s office in Dhanmondi this afternoon.

Quader, also Road Transport and Bridges Minister, said no country has a perfect democracy. “We don’t claim our democracy is perfect. But we are trying to make it perfect, our Prime Minister is sincere in this regard. ”

BNP which now talks about multiparty democracy itself practiced “curfew democracy” and arranged a fraudulent referendum on February 15, with a dubious 114% ‘Yes’ vote and 12.3 million fake voters, Quader said.

Quader said the BNP had pushed the democratic process to the brink of destruction and turned elections into a farce.

Addressing BNP’s claims that Tarique Rahman and Khaleda Zia are popular leaders despite their corruption, Quader said, “During the BNP era, Hawa Bhaban was a hub of corruption and looting. Now they dare to speak about corruption. Did they ever punish any party activist or government official for corruption?

The Awami League government is taking action against corrupt individuals. Investigations are ongoing.

Regarding the potential arrest of former IGP Benazir Ahmed, Quader stated that the process is ongoing, and investigations are being conducted.

He said if the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) files a case, action will be taken according to the law, but mentioned he was unaware of the details regarding Benazir’s travel abroad.

Awami League leaders, including organising secretaries BM Mozammel Haque, Mirza Azam, Afzal Hossain were present.
