The BNP says contradictory statements made by the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) and the DetectiveBranch (DB) of the police are clear pointers that its leader MA Kayum has been framed in the Cesare Tavella murder case
Senior leader Ruhul Kabir Rizvi told a discussion on Thursday, "The RAB chief says Neo-JMB is involved in the murder. Soon after, the DB Joint Commissioner holds a press conference and says that, no, we have investigated and found out, Kayum and his brothers are involved. Amazing! "
He said that the contradictory statements has let the cat out of the bag and made it clear that a conspiracy to frame its leaders is at play.
"Today they have created their own argument. Now that this is out, it is revealed, this is a conspiracy. Framing Kayum in the Tavella case--this is a conspiracy", said Senior Joint Secretary General Rizvi.
BNP's Dhaka metro unit's joint convener and former ward commissioner MA Kayum has fled abroad, according to police.
His brother Matin and four others have been arrested in connection with the Sep 28, 2015 killing of Italian citizen Cesare Tavella at the diplomatic enclave of Gulshan.
On Tuesday, a Dhaka court indicted Kayum and six others in the case.
On Thursday, Rizvi lashed out at the ruling party saying, "It's clear now that the chargesheet of the Tavella murder was written at the office of the prime minister."
He accused the Awami League of writing the charge sheet in a manner so as to suit its whims.
Rizvi said that the ruling party uses terrorism as a diversion tactics to keep popular attention away from the 'government's misdeeds.'
