So you may ask, why am I even bothering to write a rebuttal to Al Ghamdi’s article titled “For what sin did Bangladesh hang Mir Quasem Ali?”, which was published on the 7th of September inside the Saudi Gazette. Well firstly because I have a conscience. Secondly, being an active researcher on the International Crimes Tribunal Bangladesh, I am always on high alert if there are individuals or entities looking to instigate false propaganda or promote baseless arguments. And lastly it is my duty to admonish each and every one of these propagandas, no matter how small and pathetic the attempt might be.
According to the information provided at the bottom end of his article, Al Ghamdi is apparently a Saudi diplomat, a Ph.D degree holder, and a lecturer of a University. But sadly it seems Mr Ghamdi lacks the proper amount of tact and a filter for that matter, when it comes to writing articles about a free, sovereign nation and the highest echelon of its legal system.
