Dhaka Bureau: The 90-year-old widow of the brave freedom fighter, Jinnat Ara Ayesha, said, “My last time to die has come.” I still can’t believe I’m alive. I think it would be better to die. Then today would not have seen this day. And I would not appear to you. Having come to you with much sorrow, I have to complain today against those whom I have conceived. Those of you who have attended, you have heard of parents being kicked out of the house for the greed of possessions. Today I am the best example of that.
My husband, the brave freedom fighter Abdul Bari, registered a property in my name in Hatirpool before his death. I built a 10-storey building through the developer with that property with my children. Before the building was completed, they occupied different flats of their own. That’s why I still haven’t received my dues of more than 1 crore rupees from the developer company. I later moved into a flat with my younger daughter. Just because I did not write in their name, today the flat where I was staying was broken into and looted. When I went up to my flat, my children and grandchildren hit on me.
I am already very sick, then how can I bear this injury. I cannot accept this at all. I am here today so that no other mother is in danger like this. I seek remedy through you. I want intervention of Prime Minister, Home Minister. The OC of Kalabagan police station asked me to compromise with some money. But when I complained against him to the DC, he sent me to the OC. What kind of law is this? I have to go to the one who sought justice. Will I get a fair trial? I am a helpless mother, wife of a freedom fighter. Look at me humanely.
