Bangladesh Emergency Flood Appeal -
Baroness Uddin and Rizwan Hussain
Rizwan Hussain (pictured above) is well known figure in the Bangladeshi community for is humanitarian aid work and featuring in regular Bengali TV fundraising events, was recently was beaten and tortured at Zia International Airport in Dhaka, Bangladesh earlier this week while trying to help an elderly lady with ticket problems.
The scary thing is this guy was in the flight when I was returning from my holiday from Bangladesh last week but I was unable to recognise him because he looked severely beaten and was on a wheelchair. I hope this never happens to anyone else an erg you to sign this petition currently with over 8,000 signatures so we can stop this happening again to someone else in the future.

"As most of you might have heard already, barrister Rizwan Hussain was beaten and tortured at Zia International Airport in Dhaka, Bangladesh earlier this week. He has returned to the UK on Thursday afternoon, albeit, sadly with a broken arm and leg.
His crime was to help an elderly lady with ticket problems and was brutally punished by 5 soliders for 1 hour until he signed a declaration claiming that he was illegally traficking humans and that he falsely claimed to be a Barrister. When he pleaded with them for water, they threw it over the floor and told him to drink it off there. This act of injustice cannot go by without repercussions!.."
UPDATE 27 May: This site is a site of web developers to learn and share knowledge and I wrote this article a few weeks ago with mixed emotions of anger and
sadness over the horric events that took place in Zia airport against
Rizwan Hussain. I'm sure many of you feel the same as I do and as of yet we have not come to a definete conclusion. Please help us support the "Justice for Barrister Rizwan Hussain and
sign this petition which now has 13,000 signatures! and feel free to post a comment bellow.
