Dhaka, March 6: Mentioning that no decision has been taken to cancel the title of BNP founder Ziaur Rahman, only a recommendation has been made, Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Haque said at a meeting that actions will be taken after receiving the report of the inquiry committee.

Mozammel Haque said, "There is a misunderstanding about this. On the day we held a meeting, it was recommended to cancel the titles of some people. Who are these, they are self-confessed murderers, who have been convicted by the court. At that stage it was discussed that Ziaur Rahman was involved. Many people gave many examples. Many people gave a lot of information about the killer."

The Liberation War Affairs Minister said, "We have formed a committee. Within two months, the committee will have to submit documentary evidence. After receiving the report, the committee will analyse and discuss the decision."

"Some have written in the press, it has been recommended for cancellation, some have said, a committee has been formed. I have tried to clarify the matter in the media. We did not cancel the title, it was decided to cancel. It was decided that the inquiry committee will take a decision after analysing his report. It has been decided to find out when and where he was involved in the murder. Once it is out, we will present it to the nation."
