A senior BNP leader on Saturday warned the police officials who filed cases against senior opposition leaders saying 'steps against them would be taken once the party goes to power'.
"Once BNP goes to power, steps will be taken against those 'enthusiastic' police officers who are favouring the government and have filed the false cases against the opposition leaders and activists," BNP standing committee member M K Anwar said at a human-chain programme in front of the National Press Club in the city.
The BNP leader is also accused in a case filed under the Speedy Trial Act over violence during a shutdown in the capital. He came out of jail last week on bail.
Anwar said, "The government has already withdrawn 7,500 cases against their party activists and now filing cases against the opposition one after another."
Saying the cases against the BNP leaders were 'groundless', Anwar said, "The unsuccessful government resorted to false cases and torture to repress the opposition."
"But the agitation cannot be stopped by filing cases," he added.
He reiterated his party's long-standing demand to reinstate the caretaker government provision, which was annulled through the 15th Amendment to the Constitution last year.
