Victims demand punishment of culprits

The victims of the BNP-Jamaat alliance’s firebomb and arson attacks in the name of movements during 2013-14, on Sunday demanded exemplary punishments to the masterminds and the perpetrators of the mayhem through trials.

“Please hold trial of all involved in the arson attacks in which many people including my husband were killed and numerous others injured,” Mafruha Begum urged the Prime Minister while sharing her agony of losing her husband Nuruzzaman Bablu and her 10 grader daughter Maisha in a BNP-Jamaat petrol bomb attack on a bus in Chauddagram of Cumilla on their way back home from Cox’s Bazar.

Speaking at a programme titled “Woe of fire-terrorism: Partial scenario of BNP-Jamaat’s fire-terrorism, anarchy and human rights violation” organised by the Awami League at the National Museum auditorium, Shahbagh in the capital city, she also expressed her apprehension whether she could see the punishment of the culprits in her lifetime.
