Amini's son kidnapped on govt's nod

BNP Acting Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir yesterday blamed the government for 'kidnapping' a son of Fazlul Haque Amini, chairman of a faction of Islami Oikya Jote (IOJ).
“Law enforcers kidnapped Hasanat (Abul Hasanat) on instructions of the government,” Fakhrul said at a press briefing at BNP's central office at Naya Paltan in the capital.
Demanding his immediate release, the BNP leader alleged that the law enforcers are now threatening Amini's family.
Mirza Fakhrul said law enforcers abducted Hasanat the same way they earlier abducted Dhaka City Corporation ward councillor and BNP central leader Chowdhury Alam.
He said, “The government is doing these only to hide their failure in different areas and cracking down on the opposition leaders whenever they are forging movement against its failure.”
Amini, also chief of Islamic Law Implementation Committee, earlier claimed that law enforcers in plain clothes picked up his son on April 10 from Sutrapur in the capital.
But police denied the claim.
BNP Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi Ahmed, Jubadal President Moazzem Hossain Alal among others were present at the conference.
