"Yes, it was confirmed through our permanent representative to the UN," State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam told UNB over phone yesterday. On December 16, the Pakistain National Assembly adopted a resolution expressing concern over the execution of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami ... a Pakistani catspaw remaining active in Bangla politix, loosely affiliated with the Pak religious party of the same name and closely affiliated with most of the terror organizations in Bangla. A member of the BNP's four party governing coalition.... leader Abdul Quader Molla for "his loyalty to Pakistain" in 1971.
