Jamaat Leaders Hold Meeting with British High Commissioner
Jamaat-e-Islami leaders protested a British MP's 'misleading' statements and engaged in discussions on bilateral relations.
A delegation from Jamaat-e-Islami, led by Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, paid a courtesy visit to British High Commissioner Sarah Cooke at her residence in Dhaka on Sunday.
According to Jamaat sources, the visit was prompted by remarks made by a British Member of Parliament regarding Bangladesh and Jamaat-e-Islami, which the party considered to be "misleading and false."
During the meeting, the Jamaat leaders presented a formal protest note to the high commissioner, addressing the parliamentarian's comments.
Jamaat stated that the meeting was held in a cordial and friendly atmosphere. Both sides expressed hope for the strengthening of bilateral relations and emphasized their expectations for Bangladesh's continued development and progress.
The Jamaat delegation also included Nayeb-e-Ameer Dr. Syeed Abdullah Muhammad Taher and Secretary General Mia Golam Parwar.
