On January 15, 2019, Beximco Group vice-chairman Salman F Rahman was appointed as the prime minister鈥檚 private industry and investment adviser.
Anisul Huq was law minister of the government of Sheikh Hasina for three terms鈥�2014, 2018, and 2024鈥攁fter he was appointed as law minister for the first time on January 9, 2014.
Awami League people are now on the run to avoid arrests and mob beatings after the fall of the government of Sheikh Hasina on August 5 amid a mass uprising led by students.
Both Anisul and Salman, close aides to Sheikh Hasina, who has fled to India, went into hiding like many others after the forced resignation of the long-time ruler.聽
Over 500 people were killed and several thousand were injured in violence between July and August as students accused police of mass killing during their quota reform movement.
