BNP is trying to create a chaotic situation in the country in the name of its peaceful protest programme, the Awami League leader said.
Earlier in the day, Awami League Publicity Affairs Secretary Hasan Mahmud said no one is above the law and it has been proved through the judgment.
“It is not a matter of our satisfaction or dissatisfaction," he added.
"Our claim has also been proved authentic," Mahmud said, referring to Awami Legaue’s repeated claims that the BNP chief and her son Tarique were involved in corruption.
