Staff Correspondent

Former MP of Habiganj-4 constituency and social media personality Barrister Syed Sayedul Haque Sumon, who is currently in jail facing multiple cases, has written two letters from Kashimpur jail. One letter was addressed to his mother, while the other was for his siblings and their spouses.

On Tuesday evening, his London-based brother, Syed Sohag Haque, shared the letters on Facebook.

In his letter to his mother, Barrister Sumon wrote:
“Do not worry about me. Whatever Allah does, He does for the good. Initially, it was difficult, but now I have adjusted. I pray regularly, read the Quran, and enjoy reading its Bangla translation. Take care of yourself. I have caused you pain my entire life, starting from my birth when I was a large baby. Even now, at 45, you are paying rent for my family’s home. I pray for your health and long life. Stay well.”

Addressing his siblings, Barrister Sumon said:
“Do not worry about me. I am in jail as a political prisoner, not as a thief or corrupt individual. I never wanted you to face any dishonor because of me, and I hope, by Allah’s mercy, that will never happen. Many ask how I will manage expenses while in jail without wealth. I tell them my greatest asset is my five sisters and one brother. I have no regrets even if I am not on this earth. My sisters will always be the best guardians for my next generation. Stay well, everyone. If Allah wills, we will meet soon.”
