Your Right To Know
Monday, January 21, 2013
The definition of democracy is said to be "Government of the people, by the people, for the people". Then there are countries that have tailored democracy to the benefit of their people so that their basic human rights are protected, while at the same time they can elect or vote their leaders out of office. Is Bangladesh a democracy?
In Bangladesh, democracy has somewhat degenerated into a license to deeds evil: killing innocent people in broad daylight, committing outrage to innocent schoolgirls including children, and to do whatever one's distorted mind wishes to do with impunity. That is democracy in Bangladesh. This democracy is not what we gave lives for. This democracy is not what we want for our progeny. Where is the Rule of Law?
How is bail being enlarged t o the murderer and rapist of the 5-year-old girl? This is my message to all the fathers and parents of the victims of rape and murder: Get hold of the murderer or rapist, gather all the people of the village, hang the man from the tallest tree, and leave him there for all to see. Let him hang there until everyone knows what he did. There is no Rule of Law in Bangladesh, and we are, unfortunately, living in a 'mock democracy'.
