The Panic-stricken Regime Arrests Eight Members and Activists of Hizb ut Tahrir out of Frustration from their Inability to Prevent the Successful Online Political Conference of the Party

Eight more courageous shabab (members and activists) of Hizb ut Tahrir have been arrested last Monday (07/09/2015) from Khilkhet, Dhaka, by the Detective Branch (DB) thugs of the vile regime. To evade growing public discontent over arresting the shabab of the party, the thugs of this trembling regime now took the brothers secretly in the dark of the night. Rather than producing them in court, they are still being held and brutally beaten in the notorious torture chamber of the DB office at Minto Road. The eight shabab are: Tareq Amin - editor of the Monthly Textile Today magazine and his office clerk, Abdul Qaiyum (26), Ariful Islam (25), Muhammad Nipun (26), Khaer Opu (22), Muhammad Ibrahim (26) and Rashedul Islam (24).

Indeed, these are clear manifestations of the sheer frustration of tyrant Hasina and her government for not being able to thwart the online political conference of the party that turned out to be immensely successful. At first, prior to the conference, they used the nastiest political ploy by having arrested two dignified female members of the party who were even denied proper treatment after their torture. To seek vengeance against the workers of Allah (swt), they employed some Islam-hating police officers and detectives to torture the sisters. When the sisters were screaming "Allah, Allah!" as they were being ruthlessly beaten, one of the officers was saying: "Wait! You will see your Allah today"!! And those feebleminded thugs of Hasina thought that might be an effective repellent to have the conference foiled. But once they saw their sleazy intimidation tactics lying shattered on the floor, they went for these arbitrary arrests and torturing the shabab in secret detention without even producing them in court.

Let Hasina and her DB thugs know that the members and activists of Hizb ut Tahrir are those brave sons and daughters of the Ummah who had sworn firm allegiance to Allah (swt) that they will not flee from this path of sacrifice to re-establish the promised Khilafah "Caliphate" on the method of Prophethood. Does Hasina really think that we fear her thugs and their torture! No, you are in delusion O Hasina! Rather we warn you of the coming punishment for all the crimes you and your gangsters committed upon the sincere workers of the Khilafah "Caliphate". O Hasina! Aren't you still able to come out of your daydreaming about annihilating the movement of Hizb ut Tahrir? Can't you see how the Hizb is becoming stronger every single day even after your futile tactic to ban us in 2009? From trying to taint our image with militancy to resorting to brutal torture, every single useless and desperate attempt of yours has failed one after another to suppress the powerful voice of Hizb ut Tahrir. When Allah (swt) is the Guardian of the members of this blessed party, all we can do is to warn you to repent before it is too late.

اللَّهُ وَلِيُّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يُخْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَوْلِيَاؤُهُمْ الطَّاغُوتُ يُخْرِجُونَهُمْ مِنْ النُّورِ إِلَى الظُّلُمَاتِ أُوْلَئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ

"Allah is the Wali (Protector or Guardian) of those who believe. He brings them out from darkness into light. But as for those who disbelieve, their Auliya (supporters and helpers) are Taghut [false deities and false leaders, etc.], they bring them out from light into darkness. Those are the dwellers of the Fire, and they will abide therein forever" [Baqarah: 257]
