State Minister for Expatriate Welfare and Overseas Employment Nurul Haque Nur has commented that he does not know whether Sheikh Hasina is alive or dead. "Fugitive Sheikh Hasina is speaking at various times—whether this is AI or reality, we do not know," he said.
He made these remarks on Tuesday at an event held at the Dhaka Reporters Unity on the occasion of National Revolution and Solidarity Day. The State Minister dismissed the rumor that the Awami League will return in December as "ridiculous and misleading." Claiming that foreign sinister forces are trying to create chaos in the country by using fascist elements, he stated, "If we, the ruling party and the opposition party, work together, become active on the streets, and raise our voices, their bluster will stop."
