Why kill police, pol activist; burn hospital, buses: US
Investigate October 28 incidents hold those responsible accountable
Matthews Miller, US State Department spokesperson.
Dhaka, Oct 31 - The United States has condemned the political violence that took place in Dhaka on October 28.
During a press briefing on October 30, US Department of State Spokesperson Matthew Miller said, “The reported killing of a police officer, a political activist, and the burning of a hospital and buses are unacceptable, as is violence against civilians, including journalists.”
Miller said the US encourages the authorities to thoroughly investigate the incidents at the October 28th rally and to hold those responsible for violence accountable.
He said the holding of free and fair elections is everyone’s responsibility – voters, political parties, the government, the security forces, civil society, and the media.
Miller said diplomats talk to a wide variety of people – civil society organizations, media professionals, business leaders, cultural contributors, educators, and many other types of organizations and individuals.
"That is what diplomats do as part of their everyday job," the US State Department spokesperson added.- UNB
