Subject: [chottala.com] The Mystry Behind Hasina's Anger against Dr. Yonus

 
The Mystry Behind Hasina's Anger against Dr. Yonus
Abid Bahar
 
Most people wonder why Hasina as the Prime Minister of Bangladesh and before has been so vicious against a Bangladeshi who brought both the national and international fame for Bangladesh.  We wonder because Dr. Yonus is not even a political rival.
 
To our knowledge Dr. Yonus began his career as an academician and has been in the banking business eversince. In contrast Hasina was never an academician nor a religious fundamentalist to condemn interest charged by bank; she was a housewife turned politician. But eversince Younus became famous Hasina has been vicious against Dr. Yonus. Research shows here are several underlying reasons behind Hasina's deeply rooted anger against this international figure.
 
Firstly, Dr Yonus's ideas of Gramin revolution germinated during the time of Bangabandhu's 1974 famine. Amarta Sen, the Nobel Prize winner from West Bengal called it the men -made famine. AL fondly calls 1972-76 period as the time of Bangabandhu's "Golden Bengal."It is even written in Bangladesh's history book manufactured by the Hasina AL.
True, Yonus's Gramin was a reaction to the human suffering during the 1974 famine when over 300,000 people perished  Yonus as a professor personally witnessed the human suffering which led him to begin an experiment in a village near Chittagong University where he finally came up with the Gramin revolution. Dr. Yonus often mentions the human suffering of the time. He never intentionally puts down Bangabadu's "Sonar Bangla" period but often explains how he began his revolution. This no doubt, inadvertantly bleeds dieheart AL heart. Hasina as the Mujib daughter can not stand this revolution that mentions the 1974 famine but glorifies Bangladesh internationally.
 
Secondly, in anectdotal form Dr Yonus at least once referred that on March 25 Bangabandhu Mujib in stead of waiting for the Pakistani army to take him to custody (some call it his voluntary surrender) could have choosen to be with the rebels to lead the nation as a rebel leader. To Dr. Yonus Mujib's presence as a very powerful leader with the rebels could have been more helpful for the nation to be led by him at times of the nation's supreme crisis. This is in effect a direct challenge to Mujib as the father of the nation claim. True, Mujib was an absentee leader given the title "father of the nation" by the AL is now even codified in the constitution. 
 
 Thirdly, in anictdotal form somewhere Dr. Yonus acknowledged that President Zia's financial grant at the crucial time of its growth helped the Gramin to take off from its infancy to its adolescence. To the AL this a bad news for the Gramin and surely a sin committed by Yonus because to the AL hero-worshippers, Zia was a "Pakistani razakar."
 
The scenerio is as if when Dr. Yonus is not with the AL he must be with the enemy. So Dr. Yonus must be a confirmed razakar too. That is why the Zia phobic Hasina even as the PM found it important that Dr. Yonus must be condemned before found guilty.
 
Finally, the AL party originally founded by Mawlana Bhasani to fight for democracy but under Mujib's leadership has eversince turned itself into a hero-worshipping party and not long ago, Mujib followers ganged up together on a staged BBC survey to name Mujib as the greatest Bengali of all times. Dr. Yonus's international fame is a direct challenge to Mujib as the only great man. Dr. Yonus proved himself too smart. To the AL no Bengali eversince Mujib became the leader of Bangladesh should cross his fame. Dr. Yonus crosses Bangabandhu Mujib and even received a Nobel Prize. This is not tolerable, on the other hand Hasina deserves a Nobel Prize.
 
Dr. Yonus as a non political person this is as if when he has been trying to avoid Bangabandhu in every turn, the shadow of Bangabandhu appears before him. Perhaps this is the reason why even before he was proven to be guilty, the Dhaka University branch of Chatro League leaders demanded that Yonus's Nobel Prize should be rebuked. Perhaps in this whole range of this on going rivalary has more to do with a battle between fact and fiction or to be sure Bangabandhu's BKSAL fascism vs. free market economy.

Shortbiography of SAQA Choudhury


Salahudin Kader Chhails from the village Gohira under Raozan police station of Chittagong district. A member of the parliament, Salahuddin is the advisor for parliamentary affairs to the Prime Minister Mrs. Khaleda Zia and the master mind behind the communal activities in Bangladesh since 1971. 

During our liberation war Saka led an extensive campaign against the liberation of Bangladesh and offered absolute collaboration to the Pakistan occupation army. The focus of all his heinous activities was his own district, Chittagong. Under the guidance of his worthy father Foka Cowdhury and supported by his brother Giasuddin Kader Chowdhury (who is an Ex-MP and failed to take people's mandate during 2001 parliamentary election from Raozan due to continued persecution on minority people and anti-social activities) and many fellow collaborators carried out anti-liberation war activities from his Good's Hill residence in Chittagong.

In an article in the 8th January, 1972 issue of The Dainik Bangla the following was reported on the anti-liberation activities of Saka Chowdhury: ' Salahuddin Kader Chowdhury and his father Fazlul Kader Chowdhury used to pick up and bring hundreds of young men to their Good's Hill bungalow in Chittagong and torture them brutally. Among those unfortunate people was late Dr. Sanaullah's son. On 17 July 1971 Salahuddin picked up student leader Farooque and killed him with the help of the Pakistani soldiers. From 26 March 1971 till before the day of surrender a platoon of Pakistani soldiers was stationed to guard his bungalow. After liberation, on 18 December 1971 the freedom fighters caught Fazlul Kader Chowdhury along with his family members when they were fleeing Chittagong carrying more than 120 pounds of looted gold ornaments '. 


On page 69 of his book The History of Bangalee's War of Liberation, Mahbub-ul-Anwar wrote, Nizamuddin was released from the Chittagong Jail on 18 November. And he relates... "I was picked up on 5 July. Then I was taken to Fazlul Kader Chowdhury. There, Fazlul Kader's son Salahuddin along with their accomplices Khoka, Khalil and Yusuf tied my hands behind and then started beating me up with thick batons and canes. They continued this for about five hours when I finally lost consciousness. In the night of 6 July at 11 O'clock they dispatched me to the stadium. Till then I was not given anything to eat, not even a drop of water. Whenever I asked for water they replied, "You have turned Hindu, even water cannot be given to you'. On 13th July I was sent to jail. During this period they used to regularly beat me hanging me by my legs. The only food for the day was two pieces of hand rolled bread and water. They used to kick me on any pretext. In such a situation, being a Muslim, in my Namaz I prayed to Allah for solace. Even in my Namaz they used to kick me from behind, shouting, 'You have turned Hindu, Namaz is not for you".

Mentioned in the book was another incident- " On 13 April, principal Natun Chandra Sinha was killed. Setting up a machine gun on the roof Gohira High School the military started firing all around from the morning. Many of the bullets hit the Kundeswari Building. Earlier, the venerable principal, pre-empting such a situation, had moved away the occupants of the building. But he himself stayed back holding on to the temple of the Kundeswari Building. Expecting the military paying a visit he had laid out chairs and tables in the courtyard to greet them. The military did come, in two jeeps. In one of the jeeps was riding Salahuddin Kader Chowdhury, son of Fazlul Kader Chowdhury. Behind them were four tanks on the Kundeswari Road, ready to attack. The principal greeted and entertained the military personnel. He explained to them his welfare works and his intension to continue that. Being satisfied the military left. However, Salahuddin brought them back again, because his father had instructed him not to leave this infidel alive. What made the day memorable was not the prowess of a band of armed heroes but the sheer courage of an unarmed seventy-year-old man who stood for peace and love of his people. He stood still in front of the temple ready to embrace martyrdom. They fired thrice at him. One bullet hit him just below one of his eyes. One hit his hand and the third into his chest. Crying out for his mother he fell to the ground. For him lamented the Hindus, for him cried the Muslims. To the mourning Muslims said Salahuddin sarcastically "Why should you be upset? It's only a malaun that died! "

13th April will also be remembered for yet another tragic death. A band of rogues led by Salahuddin entered the house of Chittaranjan Biswas, a respected resident of Gohira at half past ten in the morning, picked up Biswas's son Doyal Hori Biswas, a student leader, and brutally killed him.

On 25 April 1991, the local Awami League leader Abdullah Al-Harun filed an election case with the Election Commission against Salahuddin Kader Chowdhury and his accomplices. Salahuddin Kader Chowdhury was number one in the list of the seven defendants in the case. Relating the misdeeds of Salahuddin, Abdullah Al-Harun mentioned, the number one defendant believes in using force, brutality and terrorism. He never cares about law. He never had any respect toward the election rules and norms. Neither does he believe in people's mandate. In 1971, while supporting the then Pakistani forces the Number 1 defendant played a most deplorable and heinous role against the war of liberation. He had been involved in many incidents of killing and looting. On 13.4.1972 a case under the Collaborator's Act, bearing number 17 was filed against him with the Hathazari Police Station in Chittagong. Cases bearing numbers 41 (1) 72 and 43 (1) 72 were filed with the Rauzan Police Station against the defendant for the murder of philanthropist Nutan Chandra Sinha. Such was his position that after the liberation of Bangladesh the Number 1 defendant fled the country to save his life. With his habitual tactics and connivance this defendant even became a member of the cabinet of Ershad (military dictator).

The hearing of the case of Nutan Chandra Sinha's murder was held in 1972. There were 12 witnesses including Nutan Chandra Sinha's son Sattya Ranjan Sinha. The FIR number of the case is U/S302/120(13)/298 under Bangladesh Penal Code. The hearing began on 29th January, 1972. Saka Chowdhury and five other defendants were absconding. On the other hand, rest of the defendants including his father Fazlul Kader Chowdhury was in the jail custody. In the charge sheet of the case it was mentioned that the complaints against Salahuddin Kader Chowdhury and other defendants were proven true.

Sheikh Mohammad Jahangir, son of another martyr of Chittagong, informed the People's Investigation Commission that on 17 April 1971 with the help of the Pakistan Army Saka Chowdhury and his accomplices picked up his father Shaheed Sheikh Muzaffar Ahmed and his brother Shaheed Sheikh Alamgeer from a road in Hathazari and took them to the nearby Pakistan Army camp. And later on they were killed in that camp.

After liberation, complainant Sheikh Mohammad Jahangir also filed a case against Saka Chowdhury and his accomplices. Harun-ur-Rashid Khan, is a leader of Jatya Party in Chittagong. During the liberation war in 1971 he was a liaison officer of the liberation army (he was appointed to that post by the commander of Sector 1, Major Rafiqul Islam). As part of his duty Harun-ur-Rashid formed a publicity cell and with the help of informers he collected information on Salahuddin and the killings, lootings and other activities carried out by him. Compiling the information he used to send reports to the commander of Sector 1, Major Rafiqul Islam and the political leaders engaged in the war. While doing this job he came to know how Saka, his dad Foka and their notorious crew used to pick up and bring hundreds of freedom fighters and people supporting Bangladesh cause to their Good's Hill residence and brutally tortured them to death.

The Saka/Foka gang also picked up women and handed them to the military for their carnal pleasure. Just before independence, Salahuddin fled the country. The freedom fighters missed him narrowly while chasing him. However, it is believed that of the bullets fired at him one had hit him in the leg. Having returned to Bangladesh, even after 32 years of independence, Saka Chowdhury is still engaged in extortion, lootings, terrorism and murder in Chittagong district, particularly in Rauzan. This can be substantiated by reports from the Detective Department of the government.

Presently, Saka Chowdhury has three cases hanging around his neck in Chittagong: his QC shipping house gold smuggling during early 90's is known to Chittagong Custom and Excise, his close aide-de-camp is believed to be engaged in arms smuggling used to terrorize and cleanse the religious minorities, rig votes during parliamentary election and assassin leaders and supporters of opposition political, especially of social democrat and leftwing, parties.
