Inqilab Moncho has announced a protest rally demanding the immediate arrest of those involved in the murder of its spokesperson Sharif Osman Bin Hadi.
In a Facebook post on Sunday night, the platform said the rally will be held on Monday at 3:00pm, marching from Shaheed Hadi Chattar in Shahbagh to Shaheed Minar.
In a separate post, Inqilab Moncho claimed that none of its two-point demands has been accepted so far. The platform also expressed dissatisfaction over the absence of the Home Affairs Adviser and Khuda Baksh Chowdhury, Special Assistant to the Interim Government with the status of State Minister, at a press conference.
“Those who were "Hasina's agents" within the civil and military intelligence agencies have not been arrested yet,” the post further alleged.
Inqilab Moncho also criticized authorities for what it termed as attempts to downplay the killing of Sharif Osman Bin Hadi by holding a press conference led by an Additional Inspector General of Police.
Against this backdrop, the platform announced it will hold a press conference outlining its future programmes and demands on Monday at 12:00 noon at Shaheed Hadi Chattar, Shahbagh.
Osman Hadi, also a prospective candidate for Dhaka-8, was shot in the head on December 12 while travelling in a rickshaw on Culvert Road in Puratan Paltan.
For advanced treatment, he was airlifted to Singapore, where he succumbed to his injuries on the night of December 18.
Later, he was laid to rest beside the grave of National Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam near the Dhaka University Central Mosque at around 3:30 pm on Saturday.
