KUSHTIA, July 12,2022 (BSS) - Awami League (AL) Joint General Secretary
Mahbubul Alam Hanif today said the government will investigate how Tarique
Rahman, acting chairman of Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), is staying for
so long in London even after being a criminal.
 
"There are multiple corruption cases against Tarique. The nation wants to
know how he has been staying in London for almost a decade," he said the
newsmen at a meeting in his residence here this morning.
 
Regarding Tareq Rahman's stay in London, Hanif further said: "He is living a
comfortable life in London. He owns luxurious house and cars and also hired
multiple officers and staff for maintenance. What's the source of so much
money, everyone needs to know."

Asked how he considers the BNP's threat to take the government down, Hanif
said, "Awami League is thinking nothing about this right now as there is no
involvement of the people in the movement. People of the country have taken
the issue as a joke."

During the meeting, Lawmaker from Kushtia-4 (Kumarkhali-Khoksa) constituency
Barrister Selim Altaf George, Kushtia District Awami League Joint-Secretary
Sheikh Hasan Mehedi, Organising Secretary Mazharul Alam Sumon and other local
leaders and activists were present, among others.
