UN can’t investigate Bangladesh’s internal issues: Quader

Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Wednesday said that the United Nations has no jurisdiction to investigate any internal issue of Bangladesh.

“The UN has no jurisdiction to investigate the complaint that BNP made to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights over alleged mass murder,” he said.

He was addressing a protest organised by the Dhaka South Awami League Unit marking the 17th anniversary of the serial bomb blasts across the country.

He also called upon AL leaders and workers to unite as the party will have to work hard to realise the dreams of Badbangabandhu and uphold the spirit of the Liberation War.

The ruling Awami League held demonstrations across the country protesting the nationwide serial bomb attacks.

On August 17, 2005, a series of bombs went off at more than 500 spots across the country during the BNP-Jamaat alliance government.
