Chittagong-based radical Islamist group Hefazat-e-Islam yesterday renewed its resolve to hold the December 24 rally at Motijheel Shapla Chattar demanding implementation of its 13-point demands.
From a press conference at a madrasa in Baridhara of the capital, Hefazat’s Dhaka metropolitan unit Convener Nur Hossain Quashemi also called upon the government to help it hold the rally.
He said they had already submitted an application to the authorities seeking permission.
Responding to a question, the Hefazat leader said: “We are yet to complete the list of people killed during the crackdown on the night of May 5.”
