Dhaka, Dec 09 (V7N) – A delegation from Jamaat-e-Islami, led by Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, met with British High Commissioner Sarah Cooke at her Dhaka residence on Sunday.

According to Jamaat sources, the visit was initiated to address "misleading and false" remarks made by a British Parliament member regarding Bangladesh and Jamaat-e-Islami.

During the meeting, the delegation presented a formal protest note to the high commissioner, refuting the parliamentarian's comments.

Jamaat described the meeting as cordial, stating that both parties expressed hopes for strengthened bilateral relations and discussed the ongoing development and progress of Bangladesh.

The Jamaat delegation also included Nayeb-e-Ameer Dr. Syeed Abdullah Muhammad Taher and Secretary General Mia Golam Parwar.
