With in 30years World would be required two Earth´s resources to meet the demands of humanity
Two Earth'' resources with in 30 years World would be required to meet demands of humanity makes on nature each year. These demands included the renewable resources we consume for food, fuel and fibre, the land we build on, and the forests we need to absorb our carbon emissions, For more than 40 years humanity´s demand has exceeded the planet´s biocapacity. The amount of biologically productive land and sea area that is available to regenrate these reasources. This continuting oversheet is making it more and more diffucult to meet the needs of a growing global human population, as well as to leave space for other species .

BANGLADESH:EU Parliament pass Non-legislative resolution about Human Rights Situations
Human rights violations by the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB), an emergency force created 10 years ago comprising both military and police officers, should stop (H, 2), say MEPs. They call on the Bangladeshi authorities to put an end to RAB's impunity (5).
MEPs also call on the government of Bangladesh to ensure that labour laws are enforced and bring them into line with International Labour Organisation standards (10). They ask that the Donor Trust Fund mechanism, created by the Rana Plaza Coordination Committee to help victims and survivors following the Rana plaza factory collapse in 2013, be made mandatory, as voluntary company donations have only reached USD 17 million, leaving USD 23 million outstanding.

BANGLADESH:ASIA: Global recognition for persecuted Bangladeshi human rights defender
The Asian Human Rights Commission
ASIA: Global recognition for persecuted Bangladeshi human
rights defender A Statement from
Mr. Adilur Rahman Khan, a renowned human rights defender, who
has been relentlessly persecuted by the incumbent regime in Bangladesh, has
been recognized for his courage by the global human rights community.
Adilur has been awarded the 2014 Gwangju Prize for Human Rights, which he will
share with Mothers of Khavaran from Iran. The award will be presented in a
public function held in Gwangju, South Korea, on 18 May 2014.
And, in another announcement released yesterday, Adilur has been
selected as one of the three recipients, alongside Cao Shunli and Alejandra Ancheita,
for the 2014 Martin Ennals Human Rights
Award, which will be presented in a formal ceremony in Geneva,
Switzerland, on 7 October 2014.
This recognition, in relation to two prestigious awards,
brings further limelight to Adilur's work, to his uncompromising stand against
forces of impunity in Bangladesh.
A former Deputy Attorney General of Bangladesh, Adilur has been
active in the promotion of human rights, democracy, and the rule of law, and in
highlighting the extrajudicial killings and disappearances that vex Bangladesh.
His association withOdhikar, a
reputed national human rights organisation, as its Secretary, has placed Adilur
on a persecution list prepared by the Bangladesh government.
Last year, for 62 days, from 10 August to 11 October, Adilur was
detained by the government without warrant. The ostensible reason for
persecution of Adilur andOdhikar is
the publishing of a report that documents 61 extrajudicial executions
undertaken by security forces during demonstrations against the incumbent
regime.Odhikar has
continued to face threat of forced closure. Its staff has been hounded and
intimidated with threats of fabricated criminal charges. Yet, Adilur has
continued his work, risking life and freedom.
The Gwangju Prize for Human Rights promotes the spirit of the
May 18 Democratic Uprising, wherein the people of Gwangju, South Korea,
resisted brutal military forces to help establish democracy and human rights in
the country in 1980. The prize is awarded annually to an individual or
organization that has struggled for or contributed to the improvement and
advancement of human rights, democracy, and peace in their community and
country. Former laureates include some of the most prominent persons in Asia
who represents the spirit of freedom, human rights, dignity and democracy, like
Mr. Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão (East Timor), Mr. W. J. Basil Fernando (Sri Lanka),
Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi (Burma), Mrs. Angkhana Neelaphaijit (Thailand), Mr. Munir
Malik (Pakistan), Ms. Irom Sharmila Chanu (India), and Mr. Sushil Pyakurel
(Nepal).
The Martin Ennals Award for Human Rights Defenders is a unique
collaboration of ten of the world's leading human rights organizations to
support and protect human rights defenders worldwide, namely: Amnesty
International, Human Rights Watch, Human Rights First, International Federation
for Human Rights, World Organisation Against Torture, Front Line Defenders,
International Commission of Jurists, EWDE Germany, International Service for
Human Rights, and HURIDOCS.
The awards are a warning to dictatorial regimes seeking to
smother the spirit of freedom, dignity, and human rights, and should serve as
an inspiration to all activists, defenders, and citizens, doing their part to
lift humanity to its true potential.
The Asian Human Rights Commission, along with all of its partner
organisations in Asia and across the globe, congratulates Adilur and the
Mothers of Khavaran for their effort, and also salutes the work of Cao Shunli
and Alejandra Ancheita.

The Naked City of Dhaka
In the morning the sky exploded and that
instantly blanketed in the Dhaka city. The rain water overflow in the street of
Dhaka city in the rainy November wind hard
toward the comfort of their apartments and homes. On the road of “Shahid
Minar” near Dhaka Medical college the tall, thin man wearing very simple
clothes moved along with the rushing crowed to a rhythm “O Amar Sonar Bangla,
Ami tomai bhalobashi” ( My golden Bengal, I love you.) He was walking rapidly,
it is not harm of the other pedestrians who were also walking rush. He was free
after a 3 years jail and he was on his way home to tell his wife that, it was
finished. The past was going to bury its dead and the future was bright and
golden. He was thinking how her face would glow when he told her the news. As
he reached the “Shahid Minar” just opposite Science building of Dhaka
University the traffic light on its way and he stopped. A few feet away, the
man reached in his pocket for some coins and offering the beggar. At that
instant someone stub him on the back by big knife. O Ghani, he had knows Ghani
from his childhood. Now Ghani is member of criminal gang of Dhaka city and work
as a police source. Dhaka city have more than 300 criminal gangs as per report
of Detective Branch, Dhaka Metropolitan police. There was pain in his back and
it began spread. It become hard to breath. He opened his mouth to ask someone
to help him and he fall down the stair of “Shahid Minar” ( Monument of language
movement) and his blood melting with rain water in the stair. But nobody came
to help him. Dhaka is the city now if anybody face such situation nobody came
to help because to avoid harassment of Police. Blood from his body flow in the
stair of “Shahid Minar” and going to told the news to his wife “ Our future is
bright and golden. The pain was worse and he remember- he was going to his wife
told that, he was free.He closed his eyes to rest from the blinding whiteness
of the sky. The rain began with exploded sky but he no longer felt anything. (
This short story written by me in German language and published in German
literature Magazine in Germany now I translated in English to share with my
face book friend. )
Bangladesh: at the end of day.
At the end of the day, the citizens are living
in a panic-stricken condition
At the end of the day, the citizens are living in a
panic-stricken condition, helpless, as they have no remaining resort to rely
on. If the Human Rights Council and the international community remain
convinced today with only their theoretic achievements, without considering the
dire necessity of putting the theories into the practical life of a vast
population of the world (in this case those living in Bangladesh) it will be
recorded as a landmark failure in tomorrow's history.

BANGLADSEH OPERATION IN MASSACRE
The international human rights instruments.
The international human rights instruments in the form of
Covenants, Conventions, Protocols, and General Comments have already contributed
a lot in developing the theories, norms, standards, and principals that have
been universally recognised. Regrettably, countries like Bangladesh, where the
basic rule of law institutions, including the judiciary, maintain evident
disability in functioning independently and competently throughout history, can
easily walk away despite orchestrating heinous forms crimes against its own
people.

The ALRC urges the Human Rights Council
The ALRC urges the Human Rights Council and the international
community to re-think how to develop and adapt effective and binding mechanisms
to ensure the fundamental guarantees of those who are living in the states like
Bangladesh where the judiciary has been reduced to the level of a tool that is
available for arbitrary use by the country's authoritarian government.
Bangladesh: Habeas corpus writs is denied and ignored
Thus, habeas corpus writs, and the justice
they are designed to provide the affected families, is denied and ignored. It
is important to note that very few people can afford the high expenditure of
seeking remedies in the High Court Division due to excessive fees for lawyers
and entrenched bribery at every step within the judicial institution, from
filing a petition to collecting the Court's order. The justice-seekers become
utterly frustrated and annoyed by the judicial process, which only offers
harassment at very high costs in terms of money, energy, time, and further
threats as a consequence of seeking justice for a crime committed by the state
agents.
Bangladesh: The legal provision of seeking judicial remedy.
The legal provision of seeking judicial remedy through habeas
corpus writs is a meaningless exercise in Bangladesh. The country's judiciary
is a façade, it facilitates the executive authority's systematic practice of
denying fundamental right. Whenever a writ petition is filed with the High
Court Division regarding the allegation of disappearance, the country's
Attorney General's Office acts like a postman on behalf of the law-enforcement
agencies and paramilitary forces in Court. The normal process appear
surprisingly simple: the Court will consider the writ, in whole or in part,
sometimes all at once or on several occasion and the state attorneys will
submit a denial of the allegations based on claims from the defendant agencies.
Rather than look at the facts, the court will generally accept the government's
excuses outright, though in the best cases they issue a "Rule"
against the respondent which requires a timely response. This "Rule"
is often delayed in its delivery so as to provide ample time to the
perpetrators to intimidate and harass the petitioners or their supporters and
should the respondents receive and reply to the "Rule" they merely
restate their denials, though most do not respond at all, relying instead upon
the functional immunity the courts provide such agencies.
Bangladesh: The High raking government officials including theMinister
The high ranking government officials, including the
ministers and even the Prime Minister, deny all the allegations of disappearance,
defending the law-enforcing agents. The Government also constantly denies the
demands for credible investigation of the allegations of enforced
disappearance. Whenever local and international human rights groups have
demands that a high profile judicial probe commission headed by a Supreme Court
judge be formed, the government routinely ignores the demands and
simultaneously blames "professional criminals" for the crimes. Now,
disappearance continues while the notion of justice to the families of the disappeared
is also vanishing in Bangladesh. Practically, the families of the disappeared
victims have few things actually guaranteed by the state: generic denial of the
allegations of disappearance, constant threats and intimidations, refusal to
register complaints of disappearance, and absence of justice.
The Asian Human Rights Commission ( AHRC)
The Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC), ALRC's sister
organisation, has documented cases of disappearances that have been alarmingly
increasing. At least 35 persons were disappeared in 2013. Between the
parliamentary election schedule was announcement on 25 November 2013 and 2
January 2014, a period of 37 days, at least 10 persons have been disappeared.
The recent patterns show that the Police, RAB, and BGB jointly and are
individually picking up persons from places of work, business, off the streets,
and at home. For days, sometimes weeks, the persons remain missing. In certain
cases, dead bodies are found floating in paddy fields, roadside ditches, or in
rivers while many remain missing, their whereabouts still unknown to their
relatives. In the cases when the dead bodies are recovered, the law-enforcement
agencies threaten the relatives with further loss of lives if any information
is shared with any human rights or media groups. The police and paramilitary
forces cordon-off the area and compel the families to bury the dead bodies
immediately. The police refuse to register any complaint regarding the cases of
disappeared persons when specific allegations are made against any agency of
the state. Those cases registered without naming the law-enforcement officials
have not been investigated credibly, let alone led to any prosecution or
justice for the families.
In reality, these provision have not implemented
In reality, these provisions have not been implemented and
this most fundamental right is being repeatedly violated with complete
impunity. Enforced disappearances, that took thousands of human lives in the
early 1970s and continued during the tenures of the successive governments with
fewer numbers of cases, have been resumed in Bangladesh after the RAB started
operating in the country without consequence.
Article 32 of the Constitution of Bangladesh protect fundamental right.
Article 32 of the Constitution of Bangladesh protects the
fundamental right to life and liberty, stating that: "o person shall be
deprived of life or personal liberty, save in accordance with law."
Moreover Article 31 of the Constitution reads: "o enjoy the protection of
the law, and to be treated in accordance with law, and only in accordance with
law, is the inalienable right of every citizen, wherever he may be, and of
every other person for the time being within Bangladesh, and in particular no
action detrimental to the life, liberty, body, reputation or property of any
person shall be taken except in accordance with law."
Bangladesh as a party to the International Covenant
As a party to the
International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) since 6 September
2000, Bangladesh has obligations to implement Articles 2 and 6 for protecting
the right to life of its citizens. According to Article 2 and 6 of the ICCPR,
Bangladesh has the obligation to ensure the right to life of its people, and
ensure prompt and effective reparation where violations occur. It is also
obliged to bring legislation into conformity with the ICCPR.
Bangladesh Member of UN Human Right Council
Bangladesh
remained a long-standing member of the Human Rights Council since the inception
of the UN rights watchdog. It appears that Bangladesh's recent presence in the
Council has been useless as the situation of human rights has been worsening
ever in the history. Orally, and in writing the Council has been receiving
numerous rhetorical pledges from the Bangladeshi delegations who ultimately
expose their hypercritic positions, in opposition to their own people, before
the international community. The constitutional guarantees to protect the
rights (to life, of personal safety, and of liberty) of the citizens are mere
parchments without any practical value in the real lives of the people.
Disappearances continue despite the fact that the country has obligation as per
the Constitution of the country and international human rights instruments.
The latest spree of Enforced Disappearence in Bangladesh.
The
latest spree of enforced disappearance has been speeding up since the ruling
party has renewed its tenure through a fake election that was boycotted by all
the opposition parties. The government denied the people's right to elect their
representatives in the 10th parliamentary "election". At least 52% of
electorate found their votes meaningless as 153 (out of a total of 300)
parliamentary seats were decided before the election in order to secure the
ruling parties' "unopposed victory". The remaining 147 seats'
elections experienced extremely low turnout amidst riggings by the ruling party
cadres and violence between state agents and opposition supporters. Before and
the after the "'election", staged on 5 January 2014, the opposition
has been demanding a fresh election ensuring the people's participation in a
transparent, free and fair atmosphere under a non-party government so that
administrative bias can be avoided. The current incidents of enforced
disappearance have been occurring in such a backdrop with the purpose of
silencing the voices of the people by creating extreme form of fear and panic
in the society.

Bangladesh alarming
BANGLADESH:
Enforced disappearances are increasing alarmingly
The Asian Legal Resource Centre (ALRC) is gravely concerned by the
ongoing pattern of deprivation of the right to life through enforced
disappearance and killing in the pretext of "crossfire" in
Bangladesh. Simultaneously, there are also incidents of "secret
killings" of disappeared persons. The number of enforced disappearance has
been increasing alarmingly in the recent months in the country. The majority of
the victims are identified as activists of the pro-opposition political
parties. The incumbent government is allegedly continuing a "cleansing
mission" against its political oppositions through the Joint Forces,
comprising the Police, Rapid Action Battalion (RAB), and Border Guards
Bangladesh (BGB) who are disappearing and killing people in
"gunshots".

BANGLADESH: Authoritarian obstinacy wins, democracy loses
postponed due to violence; pro-opposition
supporters and local residents attacked the polling centres. Ballot papers and
boxes were burned or snatched away by those wishing to prevent the fake
election.
Polling day was nightmarish for many citizens.
People risked falling victim to police and paramilitary gun-fire or opposition
attacks or both. Throughout election day, a few private TV channels broadcast
visuals of voter-free polling centres in most areas. As a whole, voter turnout
was reportedly very low. In many polling centres, given low turnout, casting of
votes did not take even half the day. Around 40 centres were voter-less; not a
single vote was cast there. There is no confirmed statistic in terms of
percentage of turnout. However, local media reports suggest less than 20%
turnout; a local group of observers has reported it below 10%.
As expected, the incumbent regime deployed
political cadres to rig votes. In order to keep up the show, designated
“voters” for the regime stayed in the front of the polling booth queues. Ruling
party activists were seen rubber-stamping rolls of ballot papers inside the
booths. Polling staff, law-enforcement agents, and village defence party
members directly facilitated the “festival of rigging”. Persons without voter
identity cards were allowed to cast vote. Persons and minors not on the voter
list of particular polling booths were also given more than one chance to cast
their vote. For example, juveniles, young teenagers, proudly held up their
ink-stained thumbs to TV cameras and photo journalists. Live broadcasts of
election rigging and descriptive pictorial reports brought much mirth across
the country and beyond.
Prior to the vote-counting, polling agents of
independent candidates were allegedly forced to sign on blank result sheets. In
at least 9 constituencies, according to media reports, the EC declared the
government's preferred candidate as “winners” although they were found
“defeated' in the original results collected from the centres.
The international community is not fooled by the
statistics engineered by the Election Commission, a pawn in the hands of the
Sheikh Hasina government. The conversation between Sheikh Hasina and her
Information Minister Hasanul Haque Inu prior to the Prime Minister's Press
Conference on January 6 that has been broadcasted live and is available online
tells the truth about how fake this election was.
The President, Prime Minister, and Speaker of the
National Parliament are symbols of primary democratic institutions. If any of
those holding such top portfolios in Bangladesh are asked by their foreign
counterparts about personal experiences of participating in the January 5
election, they will have to use their imaginations as they did not have to
vote. The Chief Election Commissioner, the head of the Election Commission,
also did not have to vote. All the candidates in constituencies where such high
profile persons officially live did not require to vote. All of this courtesy
the magic of a record number of “uncontested” seats, which can make the rituals
of “democracy” so easy for some.
The fake election was disappointing for new
voters, who could not enjoy their right to elect chosen representatives. They
have learned a fact early – that their participation in the one in five year
democratic ritual does not mean anything to power-mad politicians. The
aspirations of the struggling people of Bangladesh have been quashed. The obstinacy
of Sheikh Hasina’s authoritarian regime is the only winner. This fake election
exposes the intellectual bankruptcy of a political party, which has the honour
of being an integral of part the history of Bangladesh. It also exposes how
fragile is Bangladesh as a state, one that lacks credible institutions to
fulfil the basic needs of its 160 million population.
The claim of the incumbent regime of needing to
stage this election as a “constitutional obligation” is invalid, as this was
not an election in the first place. The Constitution of Bangladesh itself does
not reflect the “solemn expression of the will of the people” after the 15th
Amendment was made to it. The latest version of the Constitution only reflects
the wish of a “super-powerful” Prime Minister; it is internationally known how
the 15th Amendment was rubberstamped in the 9th Parliament.
Constitutionally, “all powers of the Republic
belong to the people” only once the people elect the Members of the Parliament
by “direct election”, according to Articles 7 (1) and 65 (2), respectively.
What was termed as an 'election' on January 5 does not legitimize any
parliament authorizing any group to form a government or to represent the
people at large. Rather, it is the representatives of the Election Commission
and a group of thugs in Bangladesh that have wrested power.
Today, the Bangladesh government has a large
number of TV channels, newspapers, and members of so-called civil society on
its side. They are endlessly engaging in arguing in favour of the incumbent
regime, to secure the continuing flow of undeserving benefits that they have
been enjoying. Such efforts will be rejected by the people at large, as the
participation of the ordinary voters has been systematically denied. Negating
the people's aspirations and establishing an authoritarian regime is not worthy
exercise, and can only bring more misery.
