Amar Bangladesh Party held a demonstration on Sunday in support of the BNP's second round of nationwide blockade.
Prof Dr Abdul Wahab Minar, a Joint Convener, and Mojibur Rahman Monju, Member Secretary of AB Party led the solidarity meeting and rally, which paraded through the Nightingale roundabout to Shegun Bagicha in Polton in the capital.
The rally was stopped by the police and forced the activists to close their meeting, a press release said.
Abdul Wahab Minar alleged that the authoritarian government is behaving insanely, seeing the massive tide against it. Hence, harassment by ghost cases, unlawful detention and police crackdown have been on the rise.
“We condemn the arrests of national leaders and demand their immediate and unconditional release. Learn from history, these undemocratic behaviour did not help any autocratic ruler in the past, it would not be of any help this time either,” he warned.
