Recent News From Bangladesh
Bangladesh police tell thousands to leave slums DHAKA, Bangladesh / Bpolice have told thousands of people O Dto leave their slum homes, sparking Y vows to resist from some. Police have been touring slum / Hdistricts since Tuesday telling T Minhabitants with loud hailers that they L have a week to leave, reports and residents said. There are around 80,000 people in Agargaon, one of the biggest of the sprawling slum districts in the capital. The operation comes as questions are asked about the use of more than 82 million dollars given to non government organisations for slum development. The pro-government Banglar Bani daily said 38 NGOs received the money, but there had not been any major works. A visit to the Agargaon slum showed small bamboo and tin homes housing the poorest people of Dhaka and school and college students from outside of the capital. Hygiene is bad but one student of the Tejgaon College told AFP: "Despite problems the rents are far cheaper than anywhere else and now we have to move." He also said that criminals used the slum, which was one reason why the government had ordered them emptied. "It always happens, for a few guilty people, a large number of innocent people also have to suffer." Residents of the slum put up a fight last week following rumours that police would forcibly evict them. Five youths were injured Tuesday while making bombs in the Agargaon district, press reports said, adding that police arrested seven people. The Daily Star said some residents were preparing to resist eviction, while another report said that having lost a court battle many slum people were packing up. Shomiron, a resident of the slum, told the newspaper, "We will take shelter in ministers' homes if we are evicted." The United News of Bangladesh (UNB) news agency reported that the government was determined to reclaim the slum land, while notices were being served on private slum owners. The slum "people have been given a week's time to leave," senior police officer Ibrahim Fatmi was quoted as saying. Police Commissioner Shamsuddin Ahmed added: "Vigilance is being increased so that the evicted people cannot make illegal shanties again anywhere in the city." Those without a home would be helped, UNB said. On Monday, the High Court end a two-week suspension and allowed the government to continue demolishing slums but subject to a new housing rehabilitation plan. The government began razing Dhaka's slums after the murder of a police officer, saying the ramshackle areas were criminal dens. But it sparked protests from rights groups and the court imposed a temporary ban. Kamal Hossain, a leading lawyer and chief of the opposition Gano Forum party, who filed the writ for the temporary ban, said the police action was contempt of court "as eviction cannot be caried out without rehabilitation." The UN Development Programme (UNDP) meanwhile Wednesday announced a 20.4 million dollar project, hoping to help "communities living in slums in sub-human conditions."
