Inqilab Moncho on Friday staged a demonstration demanding justice for its slain spokesperson, Sharif Osman bin Hadi, with a large number of protesters in attendance. The protesters organized a procession from the central mosque premises of Dhaka University after Jumma prayers. During the demonstration, they chanted slogans including: “We want justice,” Lal sobujer potakay, Hadi tomay dekha jay, Amra sobai Hadi hobo, Juge juge lore jabo, Tumi ke, Ami ke, Hadi, Hadi, and Delhi na Dhaka, Dhaka, Dhaka. Earlier, on Thursday, a Dhaka court directed the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to carry out further investigation into Sharif Osman Hadi’s murder case. Dhaka Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Jashita Islam passed the order after the complainant expressed dissatisfaction with the initial investigation and submitted a naraji petition (a no-confidence motion) against the charge sheet, requesting a further probe. The court also ordered the submission of the investigation report by January 20,  said Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Deputy Commissioner of Prosecution Miah Mohammad Ashis Bin Hasan. Osman Hadi, who was also a prospective candidate for the Dhaka-8 constituency, was shot in the head on December 12 while traveling in a rickshaw on Culvert Road in Puratan Paltan. He was later airlifted to Singapore for advanced treatment, where he succumbed to his injuries on the night of December 18.

Inqilab Moncho on Sunday night announced a four-point demand seeking justice for its slain spokesperson Shaheed Sharif Osman Bin Hadi. The demands were announced through a post on the organization’s official Facebook page. The four-point demands are as follows: All those involved in the killing—including the perpetrator, the planner, aides to the murder, those who assisted in the escape, and those who provided shelter—must be brought to justice within the next 24 days. Work permits of all Indian nationals residing in Bangladesh must be cancelled. If India refuses to repatriate the accused murderers who have taken refuge there, a case should be filed against India at the International Court of Justice. Fascist elements allegedly hiding within the Civil Military Intelligence must be identified, arrested, and brought to justice. In a separate Facebook post, Inqilab Moncho also called upon students and public to participate in a blockade scheduled for Monday at 2pm in the capital's Shahbagh, now renamed Hadi Square in memory of the slain spokesperson.
