Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) of Rajshahi University at a rally yesterday demanded fair investigation and speedy trial of the killers of Kibria.

BCL brought out a procession and held a rally on the campus to mark the first death anniversary of veteran Awami League leader and former finance minister Shah AMS Kibria, who was killed in a grenade attack in January 27 last year.

The leaders said defeated forces of the Liberation War emerging as Islamist militants have been carrying out bomb attacks across the country.

They also demanded reinvestigation into the Kibria killing case alleging that the masterminds of the killing have not been brought to light or accused in the charge sheet of the case.

They threatened to launch a tougher movement against the government if the killers were not punished.

RU BCL vice president Tapos Kumar and join secretary Ujjal also spoke at the rally.
