Jamaat’s Shamim Sayeedi Calls Sheikh Family “Thieves and Robbers”

Shamim Sayeedi, the Jamaat-e-Islami-nominated parliamentary candidate for Pirojpur-2 and chairman of the Sayeedi Foundation, has accused members of the Sheikh family of corruption, despite acknowledging Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as the architect of Bangladesh’s independence.

Speaking as the chief guest at a public gathering on August 5 in Nazirabad, Pirojpur, organized by Jamaat-e-Islami’s Nazirabad upazila unit, Sayeedi alleged that Sheikh Kamal was involved in a bank robbery after the Liberation War, and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was responsible for 14 bank robberies and embezzlement of funds allocated for infrastructure.

“This July uprising was against inequality and corruption. We stand against thieves, against quotas, and in favor of merit,” Sayeedi stated during the event commemorating the July People’s Uprising Day, held in Swarupkathi municipality premises.

He further declared, “There are no minorities in Bangladesh, we are all Bangladeshis. With communal harmony, we will build a golden Bengal.”

Referring to his father, Delwar Hossain Sayeedi’s tenure as MP between 1996 and 2006, he claimed the Hindu community in Pirojpur felt safe during that time. He urged voters to support the Jamaat’s election symbol, the scale, to ensure security for all.

Bleeding and unconscious, Nur rushed to hospital after violent clashes

Nurul Haque Nur, president of Gana Adhikar Parishad and former DUCSU VP, was critically injured in clashes with police in front of the Jatiya Party headquarters in Dhaka on Friday night. The incident occurred around 8:15 pm when Gana Adhikar leaders gathered near the JP office, sparking chases and counter-chases with party activists.

Witnesses said the army intervened to disperse JP activists and gave Gana Adhikar leaders 10 minutes to leave. As they failed to comply, law enforcers carried out baton charges, leaving many injured including Nur. He was rushed to Dhaka Medical College Hospital in a bloodied state and admitted to the ICU. Doctors later confirmed brain hemorrhage.

Rashed Khan, the party’s general secretary, along with several others, was also injured and hospitalized. He accused Awami League and Jatiya Party “goons” of attacking their rally.

On Saturday morning, a post on Nur’s verified Facebook page stated that he had regained partial consciousness but remained in intensive care. The chief adviser’s press secretary condemned the attack as “highly despicable,” while law adviser Dr. Asif Nazrul visited Nur at the hospital.

People Fed Up with Behavior of 24th Movement Activists- Kader Siddique

Abdul Kader Siddique, Bir Uttam and founder of Krishak Sramik Janata League, has said that the people of Bangladesh are fed up with the current behavior of the 24th movement activists. He made the remarks at a press conference at his residence in Tangail on Thursday (28 August).

While expressing his support for the movement, Siddique said he considered it close to the country’s independence struggle. However, he noted that the activists’ recent actions are causing public suffering. He added that although he expected their victory to last long, it is now fading quickly, labeling the current regime’s allies as “greater autocrats” than before.

Siddique also said that Bangladesh would not have been independent without Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, and that Tangail’s political foundation would not have existed without Latif Siddique. He stressed the need for fair elections and stronger security in the country.

Commenting on the Latif Siddique incident, Siddique claimed that during an event organized by the ’71 Mancha, a mob handed Latif Siddique over to law enforcement. He urged that Latif Siddique be released with dignity, adding that any legal charges against him should be settled in court.

Journalists from local print and electronic media attended the press conference.
