Custodial deaths

Custodial deaths are totally unacceptable. The Daily Star has published a report titled “Man dies in custody” on May 31, 2015. A man named Ishak Mia died in police custody on May 30. Police said it was suicide while the family of Ishak Mia said he was tortured to death. Now the police must prove that they are not responsible for this death. If they are proven guilty, the police personnel involved in this incident must be tried under section 15 of the Torture and Custodial Death (Prevention) Act, 2013. We urge a proper and transparent investigation into this incident.

নির্বাচনের সময়সীমা নিয়ে বিতর্কের অবসান জরুরি

সংস্কার জরুরি হলেও সেটাকে নির্বাচন বিলম্বের অজুহাত হিসেবে ব্যবহার করা উচিত না। সংস্কার যেমন জরুরি, তেমনি নির্বাচিত সরকারও জরুরি।
