Jamaat-Shibir will be banned within Wednesday: Anisul

Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Huq has said that Jamaat-e-Islami and Bangladesh Islami Chhatrashibir will be banned by executive order within Wednesday.

He said: "We will discuss the process with the home minister and a decision will be announced on Wednesday in this regard."

He said this while talking to reporters at the Secretariat on Thursday.

Earlier on Monday, in view of the violence surrounding the student quota movement, a decision was taken to ban Jamaat-Shibir in a meeting of 14 party alliance led by Awami League.
