Nahid Islam, convener of the National Citizen Party and opposition chief whip, has demanded the impeachment and arrest of President Mohammed Shahabuddin. Nahid made the demand after visiting the graves of the victims of the Pilkhana massacre at Banani Military Graveyard on Wednesday afternoon. He said: “President Shahabuddin did not take effective measures to prevent the July 24 mass killing. He cannot escape responsibility for the massacre. He must be impeached in the first session of Parliament and then arrested for his role in the massacre.”
