Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina while inaugurating the 2018 hajj programme at Ashkona Hajj Camp on July 11 urged all to remain alert so that militant activities could not be carried out in the name of Islam, reports The Daily Star. Hasina said “Islam believes in peace as it repeatedly says about the rights of human beings and welfare of people. But often we see some people in the name of this religion get involved in terrorist activities. This puts our religion into question before the whole world. But Islam is the most peaceful religion.... Islam says the people of all religions will perform their own religious rituals independently. Our Prophet (PBUH) repeatedly said that. Nobody has the right to malign our religion.”

Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on July 16 said that the current Government’s activities give an impression that a ‘non-political and external force’ is now running the country, reports New Age. “I find no similarity between the current Awami League and the pre-1971 Awami League. Once it had struggled for the independence, democracy and people’s rights, but now it has become the most repressive party. It seems to me the country is now run by a non-political and external force from outside Bangladesh,” he said.

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan on July 17 said if the Rohingyas were not safely repatriated soon, they would become easy targets of international terrorist groups that always look for new recruits, reports The Daily Star. He made the comment at a “Meet the Reporters” programme organized by Dhaka Reporters' Unity at its office in the capital, Dhaka city. He, however, said there was no sign of the repatriation though the Myanmar authorities repeatedly said they would take back the Rohingyas. Around 10 lakh Rohingyas fled Myanmar and took refuge in Bangladesh after August 25, 2017, fearing persecution by Myanmar security forces. Staying in camps in Cox's Bazar, many Rohingyas are engaging in criminal activities. According to intelligence agencies, some militant outfits have made attempts to recruit operatives in the camps.

The International Crimes Tribunal-1 (ICT-1) on July 17 sentenced four war criminals to death finding them guilty of committing genocide and crimes against humanity at different places of the then Rajanagar thana during the Liberation War, reports New Age. The convicts are Mohamad Akmal Ali Talukder (73), Abdun Nur Talukder (63), Mohamad Anis Miah (76) and Mohamad Abdul Mosabbir Miah (64). Seated on a chair in the dock, Akmal, the lone accused now in jail custody, looked sad as he heard the verdict. Three other accused, Nur, Anis and Mosabbir were tried in absentia as they are absconding. In 1971, Akmal, a local Muslim League (ML) member, became a member of Pachgaon Union Peace Committee and joined the local Razakar force. The three other convicts were associated with Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) and members of the Razakar force, the tribunal found during cross-examinations prosecution witnesses. The tribunal handed death sentence to all the four finding them guilty of committing genocide of 59 Hindu villagers, raping six Hindu women, looting 132 houses and setting them on fire in the village Panchgaon under Rajnagar thana on May 7 and May 8, 1971. The four were jailed life until death for looting four houses and setting them ablaze, and abducting and murdering two villagers of Pashimbhag, Rajanagar on November 24 and November 25, 1971. The sentences would get merged in the death penalty once they are executed, said the verdict.
