KOLKATA: Bangladesh local government minister, Syed Ashraful Islam, has said that Islamabad used his country for terrorism in India and that former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf had met Ulfa founder, Anup Chetia, at a Dhaka hotel during the previous BNP-Jamaat regime.
He said Chetia was brought out of prison for the clandestine meeting. Islam’s statement in Dhaka on Friday came three days before Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s three-day visit to India.
“The BNP-led alliance was responsible for deterioration of relations between India and Bangladesh. Not only did Musharraf meet Chetia, the Bangladesh government at that time allowed many Mujahideen leaders - involved in the Afghan war - to facilitate the activities of terror groups in India,’’ he said. He said 10 truckloads of weapons and 15 million rounds of ammunition seized in Chittagong and Bogra were meant for terror, separatist groups operating in India.
