Ghulam Azam’s son’s dismissal upheld

A High Court bench on Sunday summarily rejected a writ petition filed by former Brig Gen Abdullahil Aman Azmi, son of former Jamaat chief Ghulam Azam, challenging his dismissal from the service.

The bench of Justice Jahangir Hossain passed the order saying that the writ petition is not maintainable as per the constitutional.......

Earlier, Justice Miftah Uddin Chowdhury, a senior judge of the HC bench issued a rule upon the government to explain why the dismissal of the writ petitioner should not be declared illegal.

Justice Jahangir Hossain then disagreed with the rule.

The matter was later sent to the chief justice who sent it back to Justice Jahangir Hossain to decide on the matter.

The matter will now be sent to the chef justice for a decision and the chief justice will constitute a third bench for final disposal of the matter, the attorney general said. .......

Ghulam Azam’s son’s dismissal upheld

Ghulam Azam (Bengali: গোলাম আয&#2478 (born 7 November 1922), is a Bangladeshi political leader who is regarded in his country as a war criminal of the Liberation War of Bangladesh.[1] The former Ameer of Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh, he opposed the independence of Bangladesh during and after the 1971 war and led the formation of Shanti Committee, Razakar and Al-Badr to thwart the Mukti Bahini that fought for independence.[2][3][4] He also lobbied against the acknowledgment of new-born Bangladesh after 1971 with a opened demand called 'Bangladesh Na Manjoor' (Bangladesh not approved). During this activity Ghulam Azam sent requests to Middle Eastern countries to deny recognition to Bangladesh. This continued until the late 1980s.[5]

He was a permanent resident of England until 1978, and maintained Pakistani citizenship until 1994 due to the decision by the Bangladeshi government at the time to refuse him citizenship. From 1978 to 1994 he lived in Bangladesh illegally without any authorized Bangladeshi visa.[5]

From Wiki



Lord Byron, who was expelled from England, said, 'If I am not fit for England, then England is not fit for me'. That is how a man should be. He did not return to 'unfit' England! he died in Greece.

It would be a salute to his principled stand if Ghulam Azam, who was anti Bangladesh Liberation, continued to reject Bangladesh (like Raja Tridib Roy) instead of returning stealthily to live in Bangladesh as an alien and illegal.

Notwithstanding, it appears from the news report, the manner in which it has been reported, Gulam's son is being penalised for his father's folly?

Is this correct and if so, it is not really quite fair.

He was fires from office due to political reason . he could have given formal retirement which would give him some financial and other benefit but just for his father political position he fired . and now the court has reject the a writ petition filed by former Brig Gen Abdullahil Aman Azmi, son of former Jamaat
chief Ghulam Azam is unfortunate and i think in this govt. reign he will not get justice .

A brave son of Bangladesh and fine officer has been dismissed just because of his father political back ground. Brigadier Azmi did not do anything worng to deserve this unfair treatment. He has not even been part of Jamaat-e-Islami. It's true that he has been hurt financially but I believe his dismissal hurt Bangladesh army even more because they lost fine nationalist officer. He will not get justice from Awamis kangaroo court. He better of joint his father party and train it's follower to oust awami from office.

If BNP come back to power by next election then he should be reinstate in army with dignity.

No, its not any kind of hypocrisy. Opposing the separation does not make one a traitor. He probably thought that it was in BD's best interests not to separate from PK. But after being separated, he returned to what he considers to be his own country.

True.

However, he maintained Pakistani citizenship.

So did Tridib Roy, who I am sure missed his people too being a Raja.

He stood steadfast in his belief and principles that Bangladesh should have remained Pakistan.

He did not return either openly or stealthily.
