Bangladesh And Democracy

EDM number 1269 in 2007-08, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 26/03/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Asia, Human rights and International politics and government.

That this House notes the 37th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of Bangladesh; expresses deep concern at the present political situation in Bangladesh where the caretaker administration, supported by the military, has already been in office for 15 months; therefore calls for an end to the state of emergency, resumption of normal political activities, and that all political prisoners should have immediate access to independent legal representation and their cases heard in independent civilian courts; and furthermore expresses deep concern at the denial of medical care to any prisoner including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
