He made the comment on Tuesday while reacting to BNP Senior Vice-Chairman Tarique Rahman's recent allegations that Inu and his party, JaSad were involved in the killing of the Father of the Nation in 1975.



"Why are the mother and son suddenly speaking nonsense about JaSad and me? Why are they restless?” he asked at a media briefing at the Secretariat.



"They cannot refute Ziaur Rahman's involvement in the killing of Bangabandhu and so they are now talking gibberish to conceal the fact," he said.



According to Inu, the BNP was trying to 'confuse the people' in a bid to hide 'Zia's involvement' in the killing and his 'evil deeds'.



On Monday, BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia berated Agriculture Minister Matia Chowdhury and Inu for their remarks about the BNP founder.



"Matia Chowdhury had once spoken of beating a drum made out of Sheikh Mujib's skin while Inu and his colleagues had suggested dumping Mujib's body in the Bay instead of burying it.”



"They (Matia and Inu) have become Awami League's friends," the BNP chief said.



Inu shot back at Khaleda saying: "We did not become a part of the Grand Alliance for sharing benefits. We oppose for political causes and we are Awami League's ally also for political reasons."



Inu's Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (JaSad) is a stakeholder in the Awami League-led Grand Alliance, which came to power for the second consecutive term after the controversial Jan 5 polls.



Calling upon Khaleda to accept history, Inu said: "Your husband was a killer and he supported killers."



He claimed that JaSad was never involved in any type of ploy or conspiracy.



On Sunday, speaking at an event in London, Tarique Rahman said that Inu and Workers’ Party chief Rashed Khan Menon, as well as Col Abu Taher, were present when Khandaker Moshtaque Ahmed was being sworn in as president after Mujib’s assassination.



Reacting to the BNP leader’s claims, the information minister said: "Inu was into hiding then. (I) had no business with Moshtaque, attending (the swearing-in ceremony) is out of the question."
