Former Bangladesh minister and Awami League leader Mohammad Ali Arafat has criticized the interim government led by Mohammad Yunus on Thursday (October 23, 2025). He accused the Yunus government of violating human rights and said that the rule of law has collapsed in the country.
Arafat said in a post on social media platform
He said the perpetrators of these attacks have been given freedom or provided compensation, meaning no legal cases can be filed against the killers or those destroying state property and the victims will never be able to demand justice.
People violating human rights are roaming freely – Arafat
Awami League leader Arafat alleged that those who carried out the killings in broad daylight using weapons and sticks had gone unpunished. He said, ‘Under the unconstitutional and illegitimate rule of Yunus who violates human rights, there is no rule of law in Bangladesh. Only extremists rule.
He claimed that cases have been registered against police and military personnel, who were performing their duties to protect life and property from arson and killings, and they will be prosecuted. Many of them have been arrested on fabricated charges of enforced disappearances and murders.

Last week, former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina strongly criticized the arrest of army officers, saying there was no rule of law in Bangladesh under the Yunus-led interim government. Addressing a virtual meeting with party leaders in Nagaon, he asked, ‘I am surprised as to how the Army can be expected to hand over these officers to the law. Where is the law? There is no rule of law in this country. This government is illegitimate and all its actions are illegal. Why should these officers be handed over to such a government?
