Politicians
On 29 April, all the dailies carried an important news report under the headline "Begum Khaleda Zia, Tareque Rahman and Arafat Rahman Koko apply to the High Court for withdrawal of corruption cases" filed against them by the ACC during the caretaker government.
After all, they are members of VVIP and are above the law. They cannot commit crime or indulge in corruption. During the rule of CTG, many VIPs were prosecuted, tried and some of them were sentenced to imprisonment. Many of them are now free, some of them have now been sitting in parliament, while some are bailed out. They have returned to the elite clean society once again. Some convicts are not only out of jail, they are initiating revenge plans against the ACC!
So, people of this country who want to see restoration of "rule of law" are frustrated. Rule of law will never prevail in a third world country like ours!
