Talk:Tareq Rahman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"I am having a hard time finding links regarding the LDPs allegation of corruption towards Tareq Rahman. For some mysterious reason, I cannot access the information on the Daily Star Archive. Also, does anyone have published sources regarding "Hawa Bhaba" (specificaly any mention of Tareq Rahman)?" - The unsigned comment above was posted by Rms1 - Arman Aziz 03:41, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I found some information in the Time Magazine. I quote: "The roundup has netted former ministers from the two main political parties and, most recently, even Zia's own son Tareque Rahman. Last week Rahman, 40, appeared in court to face a charge (which he denies) that he extorted $147,000 from the owner of a Dhaka construction firm." http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1601618,00.html --Johnamiller 04:59, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
"He was elevated to this position in June 2002, in response to rising demand from ranks and files of the Party, in recognition of his contribution in last general election, which brought a landslide victory. " - Is there any reliable source for this line? I never heard that Tareq had any contribution in 2001 election or anybody wanted him as a joint secretariat of BNP, actually the post " senior joint secretariat" was created only for him by his mother. Tareq never went to an university, he only have passcourse degree. This guy is a shame of Bangladesh and to his father who was a great politician. This article is kind of biased. - fnashid —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.4.69.227 (talk) 15:35, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
