BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir’s Statement
On September 6, 2024, at 4 PM, a group of armed assailants attacked and severely injured Narayanganj Metropolitan BNP Member Secretary, Abu Al Yusuf Khan Tipu, as he crossed the Shitalakhya River to join a peace rally at the Nabiganj Community Center. Expressing deep concern over the incident, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir gave a statement.
"After the fall of the autocratic Awami regime following the students' and people's movement, criminals have once again begun engaging in destabilizing the country and creating chaos to serve their own interests. The brutal attack on Narayanganj Metropolitan BNP Member Secretary Abu Al Yusuf Khan Tipu by these miscreants, leaving him gravely injured, is a clear manifestation of this conspiracy. There is no alternative to suppressing these terrorists with a firm hand. To protect democracy, uphold people's right to vote, and safeguard the lives and properties of the nation, people of all classes and professions, regardless of party or opinion, must unite."
In his statement, the BNP Secretary General strongly called for the immediate arrest and exemplary punishment of the attackers of Abu Al Yusuf Khan Tipu and wished for his swift recovery.
