"To many Bangladeshis, Rahman is still snidely known as Khamba Tarique, referring to an alleged corruption scandal whereby thousands of electricity poles, or khamba, were reportedly bought from an associate at inflated prices but never connected to the grid."

After years in exile, Tarique Rahman returns home to a nation in flux.

This is khamba story is something without credible evidence engineered by DGFI back then.
I didn't want to say this but it is exactly because of this type of behaviour you got less than 80 seats. Jamaat to vast majority of Bangladeshi voters is just another political party contesting the election, not a group of some saintlike holier than thou people who will take you to heaven with one vote. I urge you to respect the mandate of the citizens of Bangladesh because of whose sacrifice in the july revolution you could contest the elections in the first place. I also hope Jamaat will address its controversial stance on women, minorities and sharia. You can definitely criticize any decision of BNP in future as the opposition but you can never question the mandate of the people. This is the democracy for which over 2000 people gave their lives.
