Ranga has to apologise to people

Morium Bibi, mother of Shaeed Noor Hossain, on Monday said Jatiya Party’s (JP) secretary general Moshiur Rahman Ranga has to apologise to people of the country for his controversial remarks about her son.

“Noor Hossain is not only my son, but also son of the people. He (Moshiur Rahman Ranga) called the son of people as a drug addict. If he was a drug addict youth, then he couldn’t sacrifice his life for the sake of the country. I want justice from the people as well as the Almighty Allah,” she said.

Morium Bibi was saying this at a sit-in programme, organised by the family members of Shaeed Noor Hossain in front of the Jatiya Press Club in the capital at 3:00 pm.

She said, “I have ordered my son (Ali Hossain) to file a case against him (Moshiur Rahman Ranga). A case should be filed. I am ready to file the case.”

Ali Hossain, brother of Noor Hossain, was present beside her in the programme.

Earlier on Sunday, Ranga claimed that Shaheed (Martyr) Noor Hossain was addicted to drugs like Yaba pills and Phensedyl.

This controversial comment of the JP leader triggered mass criticism in the political arena of the country and social media platforms including Facebook.
