Hasina's Regime & Repression
After took over the power of the country, Awami Government started torture and repression on the opposition leader and workers. And they trying to severely eliminate BNP and others opposition.
Firstly in month of January, 2009 Govt lodged a conspiracy false case against Ilias Ali including 250 leader and workers of his party. Frequently they are harassing him with false cases. Because he was facing strongly all heinous activities of the government. Ilias Ali is most popular, prudent and uncompromising leader in Sylhet region and nationally. The month of December 2011 the govt lodged six false cases against him. The informant of the case didn't even know that, Ilias Ali was his accused. The Informant denied and protested that Ilias Ali was innocent and I never accused him. Even after these events the govt were harassing him continuously. Politically he was passing a crucial time in Awami regime. Because Sheikh Hasina's Government had reached the peak of fascism. Ilias Ali several time appeared in the High Court and was granted bail.
Hundreds of British-Bangladeshi people in 12 January 2012 gave a demonstration to Bangladesh High Commission in London in favour of Ilias Ali for the cancellation of false and conspiratory cases and also gave a memorandum to the Prime Minister of Bangladesh through the High Commissioner. They demanded to the Prime Minister, "These false cases should be removed immediately, otherwise we will arrange severe programs and will stop sending foreign remittance to Bangladesh."

Famous quotes containing the words regime and/or repression:
“The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“People with a culture of poverty suffer much less from repression than we of the middle class suffer and indeed, if I may make the suggestion with due qualification, they often have a hell of a lot more fun than we have.”
—Brian Friel (b. 1929)
