Evidence in hand against Tarique, Coco: Qamrul
Dhaka, July 1 (bdnews24.com) -- Strong evidence are there against Khaleda Zia's sons Tarique Rahman and Arafat Raman Coco in various graft cases, says state minister for law Qamrul Islam.
"The trial in Tarique's money-laundering case will begin soon …there're strong evidence against him," the junior minister told a programme at the National Press Club on Friday.
Qamrul, however, said the law will take its own course as the judiciary was working independently. ....
Tarique was arrested on Mar 7, 2007 on charges of corruption during the military-backed caretaker government. He went to London on Sep 3, 2008 after his release on bail on Sep 3. Coco, arrested on Sep 3, 2007 in GATCO corruption case, is abroad on parole since July 19, 2008.
Coco, the youngest son of BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia, was convicted of money laundering and jailed for six years, and fined Tk 190.41 million on June 23.
About the July 10-11 hartal called by 12 political parties, mostly the Islamic ones, the minister said opposition leader was behind all this as she had been the 'patron' of fanatics and zealots.......

Dark days ahead.
Though Coko, Traik or whatever is a crook, he nonetheless are Khaleda's sons.
It matter is Bangladesh since, it appears, connections matter and you can't fool around with the son of a rising star and the next PM!
There will be turmoil in the name of democracy but in actual fact to cover the misdeed of Cokeo and Traik and brush it under the carpet.
