Leaders of Chittagong unit of Sector Commanders’ Forum yesterday demanded unconditional apology for the statement from Pakistan on Sunday’s execution of two war criminals.
The leaders came up with the demand after holding a rally held at New Market in the morning.
Chittagong city, north and south district chapters of Sector Commanders’ Forum called the rally protesting at the daylong countrywide hartal called by Jamat.
The forum leaders also called for shutting down Pakistan Embassy in Bangladesh if unconditional apology is not by Pakistan.
“We have noted with deep concern and anguish the unfortunate executions of the Bangladesh National Party Leader, Mr Salauddin Quadir Chowdhury and Mr Ali Ahsan Mojaheed. Pakistan is deeply disturbed at this development,” said a statement of the Pakistan Foreign Ministry issued on Sunday.
Bedarul Islam Chowdhury, member secretary of Chittagong chapter of Sector Commanders’ Forum, said: “The statement issued by Pakistan on the execution the two war criminals is a testimony of audacity. The statement is also a manifestation of an urge to take revenge for the defeat conceded during the Liberation War in 1971.
“The Pakistan Embassy in Bangladesh should be closed down without any delay if unconditional apology is not sought by Pakistan for the audacious statement,” added Chowdhury.
With the forum’s south chapter President Md Idris in the chair, the rally was addressed among other by city Awami League Law Affairs Secretary Iftekhar Saimul Chowdhury, forum’s leaders Nurul Alam Montu, Nure Alam Siddique, Khaleda Akhtar Chowdhury, Fazal Ahmed and Goury Shankar Chowdhury.
Later, the forum brought out an anti-hartal procession which paraded different points of the city.
