ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Sunday expressed concern over executions of opposition leaders in Bangladesh.
“We have noted with deep concern and anguish the unfortunate executions of the Bangladesh National Party leader, Mr. Salauddin Quadir Chowdhury and Mr Ali Ahsan Mojaheed. Pakistan is deeply disturbed at this development,” Foreign Office spokesman Qazi Khalilullah said in a statement.
“As emphasized earlier, we have also been noting the reaction of the international community on the flawed trials in Bangladesh related to events of 1971,” he said.
“There is a need for reconciliation in Bangladesh in accordance with the spirit of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh Agreement of 9th April 1974. The Agreement calls for a forward looking approach in matters relating to 1971. This would foster goodwill and harmony,” the statement further said. – Samaa
