Bangladesh’s Special Branch Chief Khandaker Rafiqul Islam and Detective Branch Chief Shafiqul Islam jointly held a press conference a couple of hours ago. It must be noted that their remarks constitute the only official statement from the Yunus administration regarding the whereabouts of the suspected killer of Osman Hadi. Notably, both officials admitted they have no specific information about the suspect’s last known location. They also confirmed they have no concrete evidence that the suspect crossed the border into India.

Despite this lack of confirmed information, India has been repeatedly blamed over the past few days by senior leaders of the NCP, including rhetoric as extreme as threats to sever the Northeast. Even today, members of Osman Hadi’s family erupted in anti-Indian rhetoric. Multiple attempts were made to march toward the Indian High Commission in Dhaka, while in other districts Indian high commission offices were attacked and vandalized.

At this point, no one knows who killed Osman Hadi or why. Yet rumors and dirty politics have elevated him into a mythical figure, triggering attacks by radical Islamists on media houses, cultural institutions, and the Indian High Commission, among others. The entire episode is nothing short of unbelievable.

Some key quotes from the press conference of the Special Branch and Detective Branch chiefs:

“We do not have any specific information about the last location.”
Bengali:

“And regarding whether the accused crossed the border, we have no specific information on that.”

“We have not been able to confirm that he crossed the border.”

“This is one possibility; many times criminals attempt to hide their location by spreading various kinds of misleading information. This could be such an attempt.”
