Killing children!

S.A. Mansoor, Dhaka
A front-page banner headline news was published in a local English daily on July 21. It underscores the bestial lust for money even by killing innocent children through medicine which is the worst possible criminal act that can be committed! Perpetrators of this heinous murderous scheme should be drastically punished. Even hanging till death seems insufficient for such horrendous criminals who operate this private drug manufacturing entity! For public safety, their factories should be locked up immediately; and the criminals responsible thrown to jail; with no provision of bail; till they are sentenced to death. This is the least that they deserve! These are grave crimes against innocent children; committed for the lust for ill-gotten wealth! They deserve no mercy. I believe every person reading this will agree with the sentiments expressed! I will appeal to all our audio-visual and print media to warn the public of this dangerous and murderous poisoning activity being openly carried out in a so-called civilised society, where we unfortunately live! One wonders why the government is not taking firm and quick action against the perpetrators of this heinous criminal activity? This is far worse than illegal occupation of land and illegal building without permission, which is rightly being destroyed. The destruction of these murderous people and their facility to produce poison must be immediately destroyed forever.
