Hasnat Abdullah, convener of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, declared, "Either we stay, or the Awami League does." Speaking at the funeral procession of slain student activist Abul Kashem on Wednesday night, he lamented their failure to secure justice. "The very day the UN report on human rights violations was released, my brother was martyred," he said, asserting that the Awami League and revolutionaries cannot coexist.
