Islamabad, Nov 22 (IBNS): Pakistan on Sunday criticised Bangladesh over the execution of BNP leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury and Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mujahid for the crimes committed by them against humanity during 1971.

In a statement, Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: "We have noted with deep concern and anguish the unfortunate executions of the Bangladesh National Party Leader, Mr. Salauddin Quadir Chowdhury and Mr Ali Ahsan Mojaheed. Pakistan is deeply disturbed at this development."

"As emphasized earlier, we have also been noting the reaction of the international community on the flawed trials in Bangladesh related to events of 1971" it said.

"There is a need for reconciliation in Bangladesh in accordance with the spirit of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh Agreement of 9th April 1974. The Agreement calls for a forward looking approach in matters relating to 1971. This would foster goodwill and harmony," the Ministry said.
