A. K. Faezul Huq
Résumé
Abul Kalam Faezul Huq (A. K. Faezul Huq) (এ. কে. ফায়জুল হক) (15 March 1944 – 19 July 2007) was a Bangladeshi politician, lawyer, and columnist. Huq served as a member of parliament on three occasions, and held various ministerial portfolios including Public Works, Urban Development, Jute, and Textiles after Bangladesh gained independence. He was first elected as a member of the Pakistan National Assembly from the Banaripara Upazila-Swarupkathi-Nazirpur Upazila constituency as a Awami League nomination in 1970.
On 19 July 2007, Faezul Huq died of a heart attack at his residence in Baridhara, Dhaka. His body was buried at Banani graveyard, Dhaka on 20 July 2007.
Born in Calcutta, Faezul was the only son of A. K. Fazlul Huq, then Prime Minister of an undivided Bengal. He attended St. Gregory's High School, Dhaka Notre Dame College and by 1967 had obtained degrees in political science and English from Dhaka University. Later Faezul completed his Law degree at the Dhaka University and Central Law College. He was also an Advocate enrolled to practice in the Supreme Court of Bangladesh.
In August 1969, Faezul Huq was invited to join the Department of Political Science at the Notre Dame College, Dhaka as a lecturer. Huq later left the teaching profession and entered full-time politics in March 1970. He was elected as one of the youngest members of the then Pakistan National Assembly.
Faezul was kept in confinement, along with his wife Rukhsana Huq, in July 1971 during the Bangladesh Liberation War, at Faisalabad (in then West Pakistan), and at gunpoint forced to sign a blank piece of paper by the Pakistani forces which would be later used against him in allegations that he had made pro-West Pakistan statements during the War. Faezul, along with his wife, who was pregnant at the time, were released shortly afterwards.
In the later years, Faezul tried but ultimately failed to clear his name from the allegations against him: that he had purportedly made pro-West Pakistani statements during the ongoing Liberation War at the time.
