Tarique Rahman not returning to Bangladesh soon

August 11, 2024

There is no possibility of BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman returning to the country soon, even if the new government starts working in Bangladesh. 

Daily Dazzling Dawn understands that Rahman will determine the date of his return to Bangladesh after meeting with the leaders of several levels of the party and obviously after observing some more time. Before that, he wants to work with the main party and allied structures from now on, keeping the next election in front.  BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman has been living in the United Kingdom for more than 15 years. His lawyers are making the necessary immigration arrangements for his return to the country. The country's responsible lawyers are taking care of the court orders against him in Bangladesh. There was talk within the party for a long time that Mr. Rahman's wife Zubaida could become active in BNP politics. However, Sharmila Rahman, the wife of late Arafat Rahman Koko, was in the midst of visiting the country from London regularly after Begum Khaleda Zia was quarantined during the last days of Sheikh Hasina. Sharmila Rahman also left Malaysia after Koko's death and has been living in a house in London with her two daughters, Zahia Rahman and Zafia Rahman.   

An BNP activist told the Daily Dazzling Dawn on Sunday that under the instructions of Tarique Rahman, someone from the Zia family, Dr. Zubaida Rahman, Sharmila Rahman, and their three daughters can become active in politics for the time .At this time, it should be easy for those against whom there is no case in the country.

Known as a person close to Mr. Rahman, the president of the United Kingdom Sechacasebok Dal, Nashir Ahmad Shahin, said, for now, nothing is known about the leader's return to the country. But he will be back soon. BNP chairperson's adviser and party's UK committee president M A Malik said that once the time of the leader's return is determined, everyone will be informed by holding a press conference. He will return after informing the people of the country. Before that, he was in the community of London for a long time; he will also talk to the people of our community.
