BNP supports Sunday hartal in Narayanganj: Fakhrul
BNP has extended its moral support to Sunday’s dawn-to-dusk hartal at Narayanganj called by local Lawyers’ Association in protest of recent abduction and killing.
The party’s acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir told reporters at a press conference at the BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia's Gulshan-2 residence in the capital in the afternoon.
BNP supports the hartal morally in the wake of the continuous abduction incidents, Fakhrul said.
The party also issued a 10-point-instruction for his party activists and supporters across the country including careful movement and avoiding going to any desolate and insecure streets alone.
The Narayanganj district lawyers association yesterday called a daylong hartal in the district for Sunday (May 4) protesting the killing of Chandan Sarkar, a senior lawyer at Narayanganj District Judge's Court.
The bodies of Chandan and five others were found floating in the Shitalakkhya river Wednesday, three days after seven people, including city corporation councillor Nazrul, were kidnapped in broad daylight in Narayanganj.
