US Ambassador Marcia Bernicat Wednesday expressed her disappointment over the reported irregularities and violence in the Khulna City Corporation.
After a meeting with Foreign Secretary M Shahidul Haque and USAID Administrator Mark Andrew Green, the US officials spoke with journalists.
“All parties participated and it is fantastic. There are reported irregularities, intimidation and violence, very disappointing,” Bernicat said.
There should be full and transparent investigation so that it does not happen again, she added. “We call for all parties to stay within the boundaries of rule of law.”
