Awami League president Sheikh Hasina’s imprisonment day today
Awami League president Sheikh Hasina’s imprisonment day today. On this day of one-eleven (July 16, 2007), Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Tanaya Sheikh Hasina was arrested in various forgery, harassment and conspiracy cases during the undemocratic caretaker government.
Early that morning, nearly two thousand members of law and order forces completely illegally surrounded Sudha Sadan, the Dhanmondi residence of Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina. In this situation, Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina offered Fajr prayers.
At around 7:30 am on this day, members of the joint forces arrested Awami League president Sheikh Hasina in a harassing and false case and brought her out of Sudha Sadan. The members of the joint forces produced him in the CMM court in Dhaka while being illegally detained.
According to the blueprint of the then caretaker government, the Metropolitan Magistrate illegally rejected Awami League President Sheikh Hasina’s bail application two hours before the scheduled start of court proceedings.
The then caretaker government tried to block the democratic rights of the people of Bengal by arresting Sheikh Hasina. The courageous Sheikh Hasina stood at the gate of the court and protested against the illegitimate government’s nefarious political conspiracy through a fiery speech of about 36 minutes.
On the eve of the arrest, Awami League president Sheikh Hasina through a letter addressed to the countrymen urged the people and Awami League leaders and activists to stand up against injustice without losing morale to protect democracy.
When the countrymen and party leaders woke up under Sheikh Hasina’s instructions, the caretaker government’s conspiracy faced severe resistance. On June 11, 2008, the caretaker government was forced to release Sheikh Hasina after 11 months of imprisonment and various conspiracies.
With the release of Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina, the democratic rights of the people of this country returned again. Democracy and development developed simultaneously.
The lost dream of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Sonar Bangla is being realized under the leadership of his privileged daughter. Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina’s journey in national and international politics started with her father’s uncompromising attitude in establishing the democratic rights of the people of this country. Sheikh Hasina had to endure a lot of imprisonment and torture during the people’s liberation movement. Had to face death countless times.
With the love of the people, Sheikh Hasina is marching unceasingly like a fearless soldier to advance Bangladesh, ignoring all conspiracies. Sheikh Hasina has overcome all the obstacles, not only in Bangladesh, but also in the world.
