Mirza Fakhrul Islam said, "Before the victory in the previous movement, the brutal massacre by the Awami League government with its forces was the biggest concern of the United Nations." We have decided to send a letter asking for an impartial investigation by the United Nations. I have also decided to write a letter to the Chief Adviser (Professor Dr. Yunus). At the same time, 57 workers were arrested and tried in the United Arab Emirates for supporting the movement. We will write to the interim government to take initiative for their release.

BNP Secretary General thanked the interim government and said that the President has appointed a new Acting Chief Justice. I believe that the situation created in the judicial department will be freed to a large extent.

Regarding the attack on minorities, Mirza Fakhrul said that misleading news about the current situation is being presented in the media of the country and abroad. There various attacks on minority communities, deterioration of law and order situation - these issues are being highlighted; which is not quite right. In some places the problem is more political than communal.

Condemning the reporting of news involving BNP in communal attacks, he said that BNP is not involved in such incidents, nor can any sane political party or individual in the country be involved. A plot is afoot. A plot to destroy the country's newly acquired independence has begun.

BNP standing committee members Mirza Abbas, Dr. Abdul Moin Khan, Vice Chairman Barkat Ullah Bulu, Zainal Abedin, Advisor to Chairperson Masud Ahmed Talukder, Legal Affairs Secretary Qaiser Kamal and Associate Legal Affairs Secretary Mejbah Uddin were present.
