No surprise in the drama called “Dhaka City elections’ where the usual Awami League tactics of a subservient election commission, a silent police, fearful mainstream journos, and pre-poll violence by the inhouse terror squad BCL made sure that there was no doubt how the results will turn out…as they always have at every election at every level since the Awami League came to power in 2008. But just to be sure everything is fully guaranteed, BCL thugs threatened female pro-democracy poll workers with violent rape–again a long standing Awami League tactic perfected by Mujib’s son Sheikh Kamal, just like Saddam’s sons did–if they didn’t leave their election monitoring duties quickly, this news report..like dozens of others points out. Of course, mainstream media like NTV, Ekushey TV, Daily Star, Prothom Alo and Dhaka Tribune have remained dutifully unconcerned lest their masters pull back the leash more. https://www.jugantor.com/politics/273775/%E0%A6%A7%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%B7%E0%A6%A3%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%B9%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%AE%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%BF-%E0%A6%A6%E0%A6%BF%E0%A7%9F%E0%A7%87-%E0%A7%A7%E0%A7%A8-%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%80-%E0%A6%8F%E0%A6%9C%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%A8%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%9F%E0%A6%95%E0%A7%87-%E0%A6%AC%E0%A7%87%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%87-%E0%A6%A6%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%B2-%E0%A6%86%E0%A6%B2%E0%A7%80%E0%A6%97%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%AE%E0%A7%80%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BE
