Veteran Awami League leader and coordinator of the 14-party alliance Amir Hossain Amu has said Saturday (27 July), that there will be no discrimination in terms of treatment of those who were injured during the quota reform movement.
He also said there will be no discrimination in terms of applying the laws and that is their expectation.
Amu, the former Industries Minister, and the 14 party leaders visited Dhaka Medical College Hospital to see the injured people on Saturday.
Workers Party President Rashed Khan Menon and Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal President Hasanul Haq Inu, among others, were present.
Meanwhile, in a human-chain program in front of the Jatiya Press Club on Saturday, Foreign Minister Hasan Mahmud described the destruction and attacks on lives and properties as medieval barbarism and it was done in Taliban style.
“These are not done by the students. Genuine students were not involved in these,” he said.
On Friday, Hasan, also Joint General Secretary of Awami League, said that every incident of recent attacks and sabotage will be investigated to deliver justice but the genuine students will not be harassed.
"Those who killed PS of Gazipur ex-mayor Jahangir and police in Dhaka, those who hanged their bodies, threw BCL activists from the six-story building in Chattogram, burnt public and private properties will not be spared. I have seen the footage of vandalism and arson on BTV. Those who carried out these attacks will not be spared," he said.
Speaking as the chief guest at a discussion against anti-state, anti-Liberation, terrorism, and anarchy at Jatiya Press Club, Hasan also said that many people were prosecuted after the sabotage in 2013-14, some escaped through the loopholes of the law.
"That won't happen this time. Every attacker will be brought to justice," said the Awami League leader.
