Hasina postpones April 14 return |
2007-04-12 |
Awami League (AL) President Sheikh Hasina yesterday postponed her return to the country, which she planned for April 14, after a responsible person in the government assured her that the government will take necessary measures not to tarnish her honour and image, AL General Secretary Abdul Jalil said. "Two false, fabricated and conspiratorial charges have been laid against Awami League President Sheikh Hasina. In order to combat these false charges, she decided to return on April 14, changing the previously scheduled return date," Jalil said at a press briefing at his Gulshan residence last night. "In this context, a highly-placed authoritative government person contacted both Sheikh Hasina and me yesterday over telephone and requested Sheikh Hasina not to change her earlier scheduled date for returning home," he added. |
