Dhaka, June 29: Bangladesh’s Awami League has strongly condemned the killing of its Chhatra League and Jubo League leaders and activists, alleging that their bodies were dumped into the Turag River in Dhaka.
The latest incident comes amid escalating attacks on Awami League members that began during the 18-month tenure of the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government and have continued under the ruling Bangladesh Nationalist Party administration.
In a statement shared on its social media platform X, the Awami League said, “You have witnessed how decomposed and partially decomposed bodies have been recovered one after another from the Turag River.”
Meanwhile, police have termed the claims circulating on social media about the bodies of seven supporters of the Awami League floating in the Turag as “baseless”. (IANS)
