BNP leader Tarique Rahman will fly back to Bangladesh on July 28 after living abroad for many years. Party officials confirmed his return date during a recent news meeting. Security teams are setting up bulletproof cars and police escorts for his arrival. The opposition figure has stayed away from Bangladesh since 2008 due to legal troubles. Courts recently cleared him of major charges that blocked his homecoming.
Rahman plans to land at Dhaka airport after first stopping at Sylhet. His security detail will drive him to his renovated home on Gulshan Avenue. The residence has been prepared for his arrival with updated facilities and safety measures. Party workers expect him to use a nearby office for political meetings. Security forces will protect him during all public appearances.
The BNP sees Rahman's return as a major boost before upcoming elections. Party members believe his presence will energize supporters across the country. Home affairs officials said no legal barriers prevent his entry into Bangladesh. Rahman has led the party from London since becoming acting chairman six years ago. His father Ziaur Rahman and mother Khaleda Zia both served as national leaders.
Security preparations highlight the importance of his arrival to opposition politics. Bulletproof vehicles and multiple protection layers show authorities take potential risks seriously. Party sources said Rahman will coordinate campaign activities from Dhaka headquarters. The return marks a significant shift for Bangladesh's main opposition group.
