BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman has pledged that if his party is voted to power, they will enact appropriate laws in accordance with International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance (ICPPED) to ensure that none becomes victim of enforced disappearance in Bangladesh.
“Justice must be served for this heinous and serious crime against humanity,” he said in a message on Friday on the eve of International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances, reports BSS.
Tarique Rahman said enforced disappearances are a global problem, a gross violation of human rights.
Such inhumane incidents occur especially in authoritarian regimes and regions with political conflicts, he said, adding the state’s security forces or law enforcement agencies often use such ruthless tactics against anti-government movements or political leaders of different views.
