Election Commissioner Abdur Rahmanel Masud has said there is no legal obstacle to BNP acting chairman Tarique Rahman becoming a registered voter. He added that the Election Commission can register anyone as a voter at any time if it chooses.

Speaking to a national media outlet on Friday, Masud said he could not confirm whether Tarique Rahman would visit the Election Commission building on Saturday, December 27, to complete voter registration.

Tarique Rahman returned to the country on Thursday after 17 years in exile.

Earlier, on December 22, BNP standing committee member Salahuddin Ahmed said after a meeting with Chief Election Commissioner AMM Nasir Uddin that Tarique Rahman would become a voter on Saturday following his return to Bangladesh.
