President Zillur Rahman yesterday said utmost efforts would have to be made to bring back the convicted condemned killers of Bangabandhu who fled abroad to execute the court verdict.
He made the remark while addressing a discussion in the city' s Osmani Memorial auditorium, organised by Gopalganj District Samity-Dhaka, marking the National Mourning Day and the 36th death anniversary of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
Zillur said although it took 35 years, trial of the killers of father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib and his family members has been accomplished on the soil of Bangladesh and the nation has now become mostly free from the stigma.
He noted that the anti-liberation quarters did no let Bangabandhu materialise his dream of `Sonar Bangla' and the father of the nation and his family members were mercilessly killed by the bullets on the black night of August 15 in 1975.
About `Vision 2021', the president said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, daughter of the father of the nation, has declared `Vision-2010' to bring smiles to the faces of the distressed millions in the country.
Awami League presidium member Sheikh Fazlul Karim Selim, Commerce Minister M Faruk Khan, and Bangladesh Bank Governor Dr Atiur Rahman also spoke at the function, chaired by Sheikh Kabir Hossain of Gopalganj Samity.
