Silence of elected post-holders on the Bangladeshi-on-Bangladeshi violence

This concerns the tragic loss of the life of the boy Ajmol Alom on Monday this week in Poplar in Tower Hamlets.
The news is shocking when a promising lifer is robbed whatever part of the population or whatever the culture or ethnicity.
But the significance of this question our organisation is asking is also to be appreciated;

Why have the occupants in the elected posts in Tower Hamlets been quite about the trend?
Haven’t they got anything to say by way of general comments when violence among young people of “the same community” goes to such tragic lengths?

Why do the young people think this way?
What are their influences?
Are there people who are setting some examples?
Is there any duty that there is a most compelling and urgent need for the local and the central state to deliver some service by way of helping education among the population so that hatred of this kind is effectively understood, discouraged and hopefully got rid of?

There a thousand other questions when the details are addressed.

It is time for those who make contact wit the people with the votes at election times to come out of their indifference and state publicly their commitment to help save the lives of the young ones and also to help save the community.
