Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal has said that there is no legal basis for the people’s commission to call for an investigation into the corruption of ‘religious businessmen’ with various information from one thousand madrassas and hundreds of Islamic speakers in the country.

He made the remarks in response to a question from reporters after the 26th annual conference of Lions Clubs International at the Bangabandhu International Conference Center on Friday afternoon. The minister said, “The people’s commission has no legal basis. They have published a book called 2,000 Days of Terror. I don’t know what is written inside the book. We have to see these.

“In the name of whom they have blamed terrorism and corruption, none of us have done any investigation. So we can’t say anything about that. They gave. We can’t say without seeing. I have to see and tell. ‘

Hefazat has announced to join the movement if no action is taken against the people’s commission. Asked what action would be taken if they joined the movement, the home minister said, “If anyone takes the law into their own hands, we will do what we have to do.” Let me make it clear. “We want to emphasize that we do not take into account allegations that have no evidence.”Background
