Gonojagoron Moncho yesterday said the Awami League-led government deviated from its stance on the war crimes trial issue, which was its election mandate, for political gain.
“The government has pointed its gun at the minor war criminals who are less important in Jamaat-e-Islami and is sparing the key figures,” said spokesperson of the platform Imran H Sarker while addressing a rally at Shahabagh.
Imran said the way the trials of war criminals and the issue of slapping a ban on the Jamaat-Shibir politics were delayed, it is clear that the government does not want to try them.
“The government pounced on those who raise their voices against Jamaat-Shibir in a bid to save the war criminals,” he alleged condemning the police attack on the Moncho activists on Wednesday.
Jubo Union Organising Secretary Khan Asaduzzaman Masum said the government attitude towards Jamaat showed that the war criminals would again come to state power with the help of the Awami League.
