Prime minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this week said JI, a

crucial ally of main opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), did not have right to involve in political activities in independent Bangladesh. "They (JI leaders) will not be spared," she said after one of the leaders of the youngsters who are staging a round the clock sit in vigil at Dhaka's Shahbagh Square was killed last week by suspected JI activists. JI did not react immidiately to the amended law but the party in a statement described Hasina's remarks as "provocative and unconstitutional", saying her comments would create anarchy in the country. Ten high-profile leaders, two of them from the BNP and rest from JI, are facing trials in Bangladesh's two International Crimes Tribunals for war crimes.
