Home Adviser pledges to act against any AL efforts to organise

Action will be taken against Awami League if they try to organise or hold a procession, Home Affairs Adviser Lieutenant General (Retd.) Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury has said.

The adviser came up with the remarks after the meeting of the Advisory Council Committee on Law and Order at the Secretariat on Monday.

When asked what your activities will be after the issuance of the notification banning the Awami League, the adviser said, 'We will do whatever is in the notification.'

"It is our responsibility to implement the law that will be passed.'

The passport of former President Abdul Hamid, who went abroad, has not been cancelled. Regarding whether any action is being taken against those involved in the passport, he said, a committee has been formed in this regard. He (Abdul Hamid) was the honourable president. "I do not know whether all laws apply to everyone," he added.

He added that the committee will investigate and see whether it was legal or illegal for him to have a passport.

"Even though presidents are not in office, they are number four according to the warrant of presidency. They do get some privileges and benefits on that account. The committee will see whether he has been given some benefits outside the protocol," he mentioned.

Regarding the recovery of illegal weapons, Jahangir Alam Chowdhury said, the operation to recover illegal weapons is still ongoing.

However, the quantity we wanted was not recovered.
