Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan says the senior leaders of the BNP cannot evade accountability for the violence and chaos that roiled the capital during the opposition group's antigovernment rally on Oct 28. "The top leaders of BNP were pulling all the strings. Therefore, they cannot escape responsibility," he said after paying his respects to the four national leaders at Dhaka's old central jail on Friday. But they immediately resorted to violence during the rally on Oct 28." On Oct 28, violent clashes between law enforcers and BNP loyalists erupted during the opposition group's rally in Naya Paltan.
