Latif Siddique to participate in polls as independent cadidtate

Staff Correspondent, Tangail: Disgraced former minister and Awami League leader Abdul Latif Siddique is likely to contest the upcoming parliamentary elections from Tangail-4 (Kalihati) constituency as an independent candidate.

The suspended Awami League leader disclosed this at a press conference at his house on Sunday.

“The nation is familiar with the leaders of Jatiya Oikyafront very well. Everyone knows what Oikyafront’s BNP did while in power. People won’t be benefitted by them,” he said.

Siddique said “People and leaders of Kalihati don’t place any trust in the candidate selected by the Awami League. So I want to step forward in the election being under the pressure of people’s love.”
