SQ Chowdhury pleads
Shamsher Chowdhury, Dhaka
I had decided not to make any further comment on this matter relating to SQ Chowdhury and the Editor of the Daily Star. I am neither a politician nor do I have the desire to be a member of our National Assembly or a lawmaker for the government ever. As a matter of fact I have developed a real distaste and hatred for most of the people in both the categories. What has now really surprised me is the question raised by SQC's lawyer about the wisdom of Dr.Kamal Hossain as an expert on the Constitution of Bangladesh. Dr. Kamal Hossain is perhaps one of the most brilliant non-partisan legal mind and a subject matter professional this country has so far produced. His creditable track record extends to many developed countries around the world. As for the case in question, I am afraid come what may the Editor of the Daily Star has a high public image. It is my firm conviction that should the government not unduly interfere, SQC is bound to learn a lesson by this process. One last thing I strongly believe that induction of SQC in the seat of the Secretary General of OIC would be a shame for majority of the Bangladeshis who stand as witness to the role played by people like SQC and his likes during our war of Liberation. I for one happen to be one directly affected.
