Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Sunday (10 March) said the Awami League government is using the Cyber Security Act to suppress the opposition’s leaders and activists.

He made the comments in a discussion program to mark the ninth founding anniversary of Zia Cyber Force as a chief guest at BNP Nayapalton central office.

"As a politician, we are used to prison once or twice in a year. During my jail life I have met a lot of young inmates who were jailed for writing against the misrule of AL," he said.

Even women are not safe from the AL rage as a Jagannath University (JnU) female student's case shows, Rizvi said.

"I strongly believe that those who are active in social media are more genius than others.," Rizvi said.
