Four National Citizen Party (NCP) leaders have held a two-hour meeting at the Dhaka residence of Tracy Ann Jacobson, the US chargé d’affaires in Bangladesh. The party’s Convenor Nahid Islam, Member Secretary Akhtar Hossain, Senior Joint Member Secretary Tasnim Jara, and Joint Member Secretary Alauddin Mohammad visited her residence on Monday afternoon. The meeting took place six days after rumors spread of a meeting between five top NCP leaders and former US Ambassador Peter Haas in Cox’s Bazar on the anniversary day of the July Uprising. In response, Nasiruddin wrote that he had gone to Cox’s Bazar to privately think about the “future direction of politics”. Hasnat explained that he went to Cox’s Bazar to express his “silent protest” against the “incomplete July Proclamation”.
