Controversy

Daily Naya Diganta reporter was cautioned for misrepresenting a statement of prosecution witness in the International Crimes Tribunal on January 2012.[6] On 17 June 2012 the chairman of the holding company Mir Quasem Ali was arrested Rapid Action Battalion on charges of war crimes during Bangladesh Liberation war.[7][8] He was convicted and sentenced to death by the International Crimes Tribunal.[9] Bangladesh Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu accused the newspaper of carrying out "propaganda" against the International Crimes Tribunal.[10]

A Dhaka high court indicated the editor of that paper for libel regarding the case of defaming Muhammad [11] and another case was filled for defaming Sheikh Mujibur Rahman against Naya diganta editor.[12]A faction of Dhaka Union of Journalists (DUJ) has expelled its units at Daily Sangram, Naya Diganta, Weekly Sonar Bangla and Diganta Television as those media houses are run by Jamaat-e-Islami and Islami Chhatra Shibir. According to the DUJ press release on  29 November, 2015; it had been included that the four media houses were being run by those accused of committing crimes against humanity and the DUJ thinks keeping them as its members is not only unethical, but also against the spirit of Liberation War.[13]
