No Islamist group has link with grenade attack: Amini


Islami Oikya Jote Chairman Mufti Fazlul Haque Amini yesterday strongly denied the allegation of the Awami League that the Islamic organisations had a link with the August 21 grenade attack.

Whenever such attack takes place the blame goes to Islamic groups, but their involvement has not yet been proved in a single case, he told a press conference in the city.

The Islami Oikya jote does not believe that any Islamic organisation had a hand in the recent bomb attacks, including the August 21 grenade attack, Amini said, adding that "If any such group is found guilty through investigation, we will take stand against them."

All political parties, including the AL, should be united to find out the real culprits as the grenade attack is a threat to all, he said.

The grenade attack on AL rally was a part of conspiracy against Islam and the sovereignty of Bangladesh, Amini said.
