Justice must prevail
The dropping of all charges against fourteen people including former Awami League lawmake Dr. HBM Iqbal and AL MP Nurunnabi Chowdhury Shaon has made us astonished and indignant. They were charged for the killing of four people by firing on the procession of Bangladesh Nationalist Party on February 13, 2001.
We all know about the incident, the news of it was published in the newspapers with photographs, people all over the country were aghast by the happening. So, when we learned that the Home Ministry decided to withdraw charges against Iqbal, Shaon and 22 others and gave instructions in this regard on August 17, 2009 we just cannot believe it.
Justice will hide its face in shame, what an unfortunate nation we are, we have no place to seek justice.
But injustice never pays, one has to answer for them one day or another.
