Jamaat condemns attack on NCP rally, demands fair investigation
Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has strongly condemned and expressed concern over the cocktail attack on the rally of the National Citizens Party (NCP) in Savar. The party has also demanded an impartial investigation, swift arrest of those involved, and exemplary punishment.

In a statement sent to the media on Tuesday (July 7), Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Mia Golam Parwar said the cocktail attack that took place at the NCP rally after their march at the Tarapur Eidgah field in Savar on Monday night is a disgusting and cowardly incident. Several leaders and activists were injured in the attack, and four are in critical condition undergoing treatment at the hospital. He wished for the speedy recovery of the injured.

In the statement, he said such an attack on a peaceful program of a political party raises concerns about the country's law and order situation. He demanded an investigation giving importance to the power outage at the start of the rally and the subsequent cocktail explosion.

Mia Golam Parwar alleged that the failure to ensure adequate security at a rally organized in the presence of the opposition Chief Whip indicates the administration's failure. He also called for uncovering the reasons behind the power outage and the entire incident.

He said in a democratic state, the right of all political parties to hold peaceful programs must be ensured. Political violence, bombings, and terrorism are unacceptable in any way, and a firm stance must be taken against such incidents.

The Jamaat Secretary General further demanded a fair and impartial investigation into the attack without any political bias. He also called for identifying the reasons for the power outage and those involved in the attack, bringing them to justice swiftly, and ensuring exemplary punishment.

At the end of the statement, an appeal was made for the government to take effective initiatives to maintain the country's political stability and ensure the safety of people's lives and property.
