The United Kingdom government on Tuesday issued a statement advising its citizens in Bangladesh to avoid all kinds of gatherings – including the political rally that is to be held by the BNP on December 10.
The statement read, “Political rallies may result in violent clashes, including with law enforcement agencies. Political rallies are expected on 10 December 2022 in Dhaka, with potential disruption to transport, communication networks and movement around the city.
“You are advised to avoid all large gatherings, including political rallies. An increased law enforcement presence in the days surrounding 10 December 2022 is likely.”
Up to 150,000 British nationals visit Bangladesh every year, according to the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FDCO).
