Inqilab Mancha Holds ‘March for Justice’ Demanding Justice for Martyred Osman Hadi and Fulfilment of Three Key Demands

Inqilab Mancha held its ‘March for Justice’ in Teknaf, Cox’s Bazar, with various programmes throughout the day. On Thursday (November 12), a large number of leaders, activists and local people joined rallies and gatherings on different roads in the town. The streets of Teknaf municipal town became crowded with people taking part in the programme. Many people were also seen taking photos and videos of the events with their mobile phones. Inqilab Mancha organised the programme to press for three demands, including justice for martyred Sharif Osman Hadi.

At a rally held at Shapla Chattar in Teknaf municipality on Thursday afternoon, the organisation’s Convener Abdullah Al Jaber and Member Secretary Fatima Tasnim Juma spoke. Earlier, Inqilab Mancha leaders and activists brought out a procession from Teknaf bus station. It passed through different roads in the town and ended at Shapla Chattar. A rally was held there afterwards.

At the rally, Abdullah Al Jaber raised questions about the country’s law and order situation. He said people could not understand who the country’s prime minister was. Sometimes, it seemed that Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed was in charge, while at other times, it seemed that Tarique Rahman was the prime minister.
He also spoke about the responsibilities of the Home Minister, the safety of citizens and the need to protect young people from the dangers of drugs. He also mentioned the bomb attack on the home of Nusrat Tabassum, an MP from a reserved women’s seat. He criticised the government’s statements on the law and order situation. He also spoke about political violence and security in Teknaf.

At the rally, Inqilab Mancha repeated its three demands. These are:
1. Ensure justice for the killing of martyred Sharif Osman Hadi.
2. Implement the July Charter in line with the people’s decision in the referendum.
3. Ensure justice for the July, Shapla and Pilkhana killings.

The organisation also demanded that those involved in these incidents who are now in India be brought back to Bangladesh and brought to justice. Inqilab Mancha Member Secretary Fatima Tasnim Juma also spoke at the programme. She called for the implementation of the organisation’s demands.

As part of Inqilab Mancha’s announced programme, the ‘March for Justice’ started from Banglabandha and passed through different parts of the country before reaching Teknaf. Through this programme, the organisation aimed to raise its demands for justice from the northern end of the country to the southern end.
