Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Wednesday said the drives against militancy, terrorism and drugs will continue to make Bangladesh free from anti-social elements.
"The drives against militancy, terrorism and drugs will go on. We want to make Bangladesh free from drug, militancy and terrorism," she said.
The Prime Minister said this while speaking at an Iftar Mahfil arranged at her official residence Ganobhaban for lawyers, reports UNB.
Sheikh Hasina said the government wants to ensure the overall security of people. "There’ll be no room for injustice and unjust in the country."
Hasina mentioned that the government has ensured the trial of war criminals and completed that of the killers of Bangabandhu.
She said Bangabandhu had started the trial of war criminals just after the country’s independence, but military dictator Ziaur Rahman stopped that after grabbing power illegally. "We’ve rid the country of the stigma through completing the trial of Bangabandhu’s killers and starting that of war criminals."
The Prime Minister also said the court verdicts against some of the war criminals have been executed.
Hasina went round different tables set for the guests, exchanged pleasantries with them and enquired about their wellbeing.
Before the iftar, a munajat was offered seeking continued peace, progress and prosperity of the nation.
