Press Release
Stop Joint Exercise with the British Naval Forces in the Bay of Bengal

The media have reported that 12 warships of the British Navy are on their way to the Bay of Bengal and two of them will participate in a joint naval exercise with the Bangladesh Navy and coast guard. Chief Coordinator and Official Spokesman of Hizb ut-Tahrir in Bangladesh Mohiuddin Ahmed in press release issued today said that British armed forces killed innocent Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan along with their partners in crime the terrorist United States. Muslims of Bangladesh will never accept such joint exercise with the murderers of Muslims. We have also seen that US Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Richard Boucher during his visit in February, demanded US naval presence in the Bay of Bengal. It is obvious that the US, Britain and India are in a tug of war regarding the control of Bay of Bengal. Muslims of Bangladesh do not want to see a fight for control over Bangladesh amongst the imperialist countries. Mohiuddin Ahmed demanded immediate stoppage of the joint naval exercise with the British Naval forces in Bay of Bengal.
