Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Huq yesterday said conspirators of Bangabandhu murder who remained beyond the justice would face the consequences the way the direct killers were punished, reports BSS.
"Some of the killers have been hanged and some are on the run . . . but the conspirators are yet to be punished," he told a function organised to distribute cattle in madrasahs and orphanages marking the National Mourning Day.
"They will be punished in the soil of the country under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government," he said. Gazipur city unit of Awami League organised the
function at Chhaidana area when more than one hundred cows were distributed among orphanages and madrasahs.
"BNP founder Ziaur Rahman was involved in the putsch conspiracy in which Bangabandhu was killed along with most of his family members . . . his son (Tarique) masterminded the August 21 grenade attack to kill Sheikh Hasina," the minister said.
