Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer and Opposition Leader Dr Shafiqur Rahman has said his party has never held meetings with any intelligence agency, domestic or foreign.

"We are a political party. We meet political rivals and allies, but there is no question of meeting any agency," he said in parliament on Wednesday (November 11).

He was responding to Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed's statement under Rule 300, challenging him to provide evidence of the allegations.

Shafiqur instead accused those making the claims of having held meetings with intelligence agencies at home and abroad.

He also denied claims that he had forgiven the Awami League, saying the party's name was never mentioned in his August 12 press conference.

On drug control, he called for stronger measures to stop drugs from entering the country.

He also urged national unity against fascism and said all border killings must be brought down to zero.
