Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday said the BNP and Jamaat have worked out two plans ahead of the election -- killing police officers and wooing them through bribes.
"They've chalked out these two plans. There's a criminal in London who sends the plans," she said while addressing retired senior police officers at a function at the Gono Bhaban.
A total of 88 police officers raking from IGP to ASP extended their support to the Awami League for the 11th national election slated for December 30.
Of the retired officers, 15 are ex-IGPs, one ex-officer of Police Services of Pakistan (PSP), 19 additional IGPs, 24 DIGs, 3 additional DIGs, 11 AIGs and SPs and 15 additional SPs.
Pointing at the BNP and Jamaat, Sheikh Hasina, also the AL president, said now they have a target to kill some senior police officials ahead of the election.
About the violence and arson attacks unleashed by BNP-Jamaat during the last national election, she said the killers and arson attackers burnt and beat up police members to death mercilessly.
She hoped that people would cast their vote for “boat” and her party would win. “So, we want a peaceful situation to prevail in the country…."
Without mentioning the names of Dr Kamal Hossain and other Oikyafront leaders, she criticised them for joining hands with the anti-liberation force.
"It's painful that they have now joined hands with the anti-liberation force and war criminals. It's very shameful."
Returning to power through the 2008 election victory, her government started developing the socioeconomic status of people.
Alongside the economic improvement, she said her government put the war criminals on trial and executed their sentence, though many could not imagine that it was possible.
At the beginning of the function PSP officer Mahbub Uddin Ahmed, Bir Bikram and four ex-IGPs, including AKM Shahidul Haque, on behalf of retired police officers, greeted the PM with a bouquet.
