DHAKA: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has condoled the death of State Minister for Religious Affairs and 1971 Liberation War veteran Advocate Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah.

In a condolence message, she has expressed deep shock and sorrow at the overnight demise of Abdullah, also religious affairs secretary of Awami League.

“He (Sheikh Abdullah) was a popular leader… he earned love of people at grassroots,” she said in the condolence message.

She recalled with profound respect Abdullah’s outstanding contributions to the great Liberation War and Bangladesh Awami League.

The country and nation lost a valiant freedom fighter, while the Awami League lost a tested and dedicated soldier of the ideology of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in his death, Sheikh Hasina said.

The premier prayed for eternal peace of the departed soul and conveyed profound sympathy to the bereaved family.
