Bangladesh: US sanctions outcome of $100 million project, IGP

DHAKA, 04 September 2022, (TON): Inspector General of Police Benazir Ahmed has said “the US sanctions on some Rapid Action Battalion members, including him from his time leading the paramilitary force, are the result of a $100 million project.”

The IGP said “this at a reception organized in his honour on the occasion of his visit to the US on Thursday night.”

The IGP said “a vested quarter hired four international lobbyist firms and gave them $25 million each for the project. After trying for three years, these firms were finally able to persuade the US government to impose sanctions on RAB and me.”

At the event, Benazir once again clarified that he had no connection with the enforced disappearances that the US government has alleged.
