Saudi diplomat shot dead in Bangladesh

.
1.The spot is a dark area where the street lights do not reach everywhere due to the leafy trees. A quiet area without much traffic. Venturing out alone at 0100 hrs morning/night one would be asking for trouble.What was he doing there at this odd hour is to be established first.

2. Embassy staff are at times employed on hush hush matters. Where was he posted last and what was his function there? Was he living alone without family?What was his personal character like? The cops must be looking into all these. FYI, BD cops are professional and can solve cases efficiently - unless there is political interference as is being suspected in the recent jurno couple murder.

My his soul rest in peace

I hope the killer will see the punishment he deserves

Now please to all PDFers, don't turn this into politics and turn it into irani or israeli assassination
I don't see why would any one benifit from killing a diplomat in Bangladesh, as Bangladesh is not participating in any hostility towards any one
الله يرحمه

Banning Bangladesh workers from Saudi Arabia.

The Most Probable Reason seems to be that the Bangladeshis who were arrested in Saudi Arabia and Deported back may have killed him for the Revenge.

Saudi Arabia should place a Permanent Ban on Bangladeshis from entering the country.

From Personal Experience in my country Illegal Bangladeshis have been responsible for Petty Crimes, Gang Rapes to Terrorism

FYI,

Just because you finally have a thought, doesn't mean you gotta blurt it out.

Likely a bangladeshi taking his anger on Saudi Arabia I would blame not him after what Saudi Arabia did to bangladeshi workers.

Saudi treatment of the BD folks is nothing new. Its been going on for decades. I say that to a few friends of mine that the good life they enjoy is because of these guys doing back breaking work in the ME under the desert sun.

I really doubt somehow one of these guys will shoot this Saudi diplomat, guns are not easy to get BD. Not impossible to get, but not easy for an average guy.

KSA wants to send probe team

Dhaka has welcomed Riyadh's proposal to send a probe team for proper investigation into Tuesday's killing of Saudi Arabian embassy official Khalaf Al-Ali.

“We welcome the offer. Our team and their team of experts will be able to work together, exchange information and help each other,” Foreign Minister Dipu Moni told journalists yesterday at her office.

The main objective is to find out the killers and bring them to justice, she said, adding, “Therefore, they can come.”

Meanwhile, Saudi Ambassador to Dhaka Abdullah Al Bussairy yesterday in a statement reiterated KSA's demand for necessary measures to arrest the people involved in the “heinous crime” and bringing them to book.

“The government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has confidence in the capability of the government of Bangladesh in identifying the criminals and announce their identification and motive behind the assassination,” he said.

Dipu Moni said if necessary, international assistance would be sought to investigate the killing, but “we have not asked for it yet”.

Asked whether Bangladesh would seek any international assistance for the probe, Dipu Moni said the investigators were already working on the case and “if at some point they feel the need for any assistance they will ask for it”. Whatever needed to achieve the ultimate goal would be done, she added.

She said the Bangladesh ambassador in Riyadh had already met the high officials of the ministry of foreign affairs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and appraised the steps taken by the government regarding the investigation.

Besides, Dipu Moni continued, she would herself visit Saudi Arabia on her way back from Hamburg next week and meet the high government officials of KSA to inform them further of Bangladesh government's steps.

The Foreign Minister will visit Germany on March 14 to hear the verdict of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) regarding the delimitation of maritime boundary with Myanmar.

On the panic among the expatriate Bangladeshis in KSA centring the embassy official's murder, she said, “It is an unprecedented incident for Bangladesh, but I see nothing to be worried or panicked about as we have properly appraised the incident to the Saudi authorities concerned and are maintaining constant contact and discussion with them.”

The body of Khalaf Al-Ali was flown to Riyadh by a special flight of Saudi Airlines last night, after a namaz-e-janaza (funeral prayers) at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport after the Asr prayer.

After the namaz-e-janaza of Khalaf Al-Ali, the Saudi ambassador told reporters that the incident would have no negative impact on the bilateral relations between the two countries. “The relations will remain as before,” he said.​
