They are tribal
Muslims in Muslim
majority Bangladesh.
Their crime is that
they are Muslims.
They are persecuted in
the tribal area and
take shelters in masjid
complexes in Dhaka.
But that does not endtheir sufferings.
Muslims are silently
being stifled in Sheikh
Hasinas Bangladesh. A
big trial for the
ummah.

Sheikh Hasinas cruelty to Rohingya Muslims is baffling. She not
only sent them back, but also disallowed different NGOs to supply
humanitarian aid to them. Would she do this if the displaced
Rohingyas were Hindus?

Tip of the iceberg
We are afraid that these few reported cases of
the widespread human rights violations in
Bangladesh under the current Awami League
government are only the tip of the iceberg.Since the government enjoys support from
many local and international media outlets,
the full extent of its criminality remains largelyunnoticed.

In short, opposition people in Bangladesh,
especially those involved in Islamic groups, are
now stateless in their own country. Their
houses are being raided and offices burnt on aregular basis. Most of them cannot stay in
their own houses for the fear of police arrests
or abductions.

Bangladesh
Among the Muslim-majority
countries, Bangladesh has the
third largest Muslim population.
It is one of the poorest, but most
potential, Muslim countries.
Islamic people in Bangladesh have been
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
84/92
Islamic people in Bangladesh have been
discriminated against and tortured for a long
time. Their human rights have been violatedagain and again. Since the anti-Islamic, secular
Awami League party came to power in early
2009, the situation has deteriorated drasticallyand dramatically. The main target is the Jamaat-
e-Islami party and its student organization
Chhatra Shibir. In many cases, Jamaat-Shibir
people are discriminated against at educational
institutions and are denied equal access to
employment opportunities.
B l d h J t I l i

Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami
It is the third largest political party inBangladesh.
Jamaat-e-Islami was originally established in
British India by the great thinker Sayyid AbulAla Mawdudi (1903 1979) in 1941.
Now all South Asian countries have their own
chapter of Jamaat-e-Islami.
There was a movement in the then East Pakistan
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
86/92
in 1971 to separate it from Pakistan. Jamaat
was opposed to separating Pakistan, as it
thought that a divided Pakistan would be
weak and acutely vulnerable to Indian
hegemonic designs. However, Pakistani forces
tried to crush the independence movementwhich caused a civil war. The Pakistani forces
committed large-scale atrocities around the
country, while some of the freedom fightersalso killed many Pakistanis residing in
Bangladesh.
Thus through a violent history Bangladesh
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
87/92
Thus, through a violent history, Bangladesh
was born in 1971. The first Prime Minister of
Bangladesh Sheikh Mujibur Rahman throughan investigation identified 195 war criminals in
1973 and all of them were Pakistani military
officers. He introduced the InternationalCrimes (tribunal) Act 1973. The very name of
the tribunal suggests that the war criminals
were not Bangladeshi. Otherwise, the word
international would not be used.
However, after diplomatic exchanges between
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
88/92
, p g
Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, the
Bangladesh government decided to follow a
Forgive and Forget policy. So in April 1974,
all Pakistani army officers were freed. Later
on, the Mujib government accused 752
Bangladeshis of collaborating with the
Pakistani army. On 31 December 1975,
however, the Bangladesh government
invalidated the collaborators law and thussettled the issue once and for all.
Since Jamaat-e-Islami was opposed to the
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
89/92
pp
division of Pakistan, in Bangladesh politics the
1971 issue has always been used against it for
politically-motivated reasons. However, in the
past no one thought of accusing the Jamaat
leaders of war crimes. The secularist Awami
League party was in power in 1996-2001. At
that time, the Awami League regime did not
raise the issue of 1971 war crimes. However,
when the party came to power in early 2009, itplanned to use the settled issue of the 1971
atrocities and thus to victimize Jamaat leaders.
Since Bangladesh was born, Jamaat people have
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
90/92
wholeheartedly accepted it and shown complete
loyalty to the country. However, 39 years after
the independence of Bangladesh, in 2010 the
current anti-Islamic, secularist government
revived the defunct 1973 International Crimes
Tribunal (ICT) only to discredit and penalizeJamaat leaders. It started imprisoning topmost
Jamaat leaders one after another. It fabricated
stories and enticed and forced people to witnessagainst them. Conversely, it threatened and
kidnapped defence lawyers and witnesses.
Bangladeshi prisons are now filled beyond
7/29/2019 Attcks on Islam and Human Rights Violations in Bangladesh
91/92
Bangladeshi prisons are now filled beyond
capacity with Jamaat-Shibir men and women.
Most topmost Jamaat leaders are languishing inprisons for years with false charges of crimes
against humanity. According to the Turkish
scholar and leader Ylmaz Balcn:If the political power insists on this wrongful
attitude and proceeds with its intention to
execute the leaders of the Jamaat-i-Islami Party,
the murders committed will be comparable to
those committed in the Karbala incident.
