Hizbut Tahrir blamed the government of neighbouring country, India, for making baseless allegations against the party and said the action of the last government was based on that.

It said the party appealed to the Interim Government to lift the ban that the party called unjust, but the action taken its worker Imtiaz Selim looks guided by the policy of the Hasina government which was unexpected. The action looked like pleasing the neighbouring country that Hizbut Tahrir criticized. – Press release
