“Probe to reveal if MP Anar was involved in wrongdoing in India”



Dhaka, May 23 - Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said that investigation will determine whether the deceased MP of Jhenaidah-4 constituency, Anwarul Azim Anar, was involved in any illicit activities in India.

“I cannot say anything before the investigation is complete. There is no place for criminals in the Awami League,” Quader asserted.

He made these remarks during an introductory meeting with the newly formed Youth and Sports Sub-committee members at the Dhaka district Awami League office.

Anwarul Azim Anar, who was nominated for the third time due to his popularity, is under scrutiny following his death, with Indian media alleging his involvement in smuggling activities.

“Sheikh Hasina does not spare any wrongdoer, even if they are from the party. Her policy regarding crime is zero tolerance,” Quader emphasized.

Quader also questioned the timing and scope of these allegations, saying, “Why did this issue not come up in any investigative report by journalists in our country before his death?”-UNB
