A wounded participant of the July uprising, Md. Ruhul Amin, testified on Tuesday before International Crimes Tribunal-1 as the sixth witness in the case concerning the killing of 28 people in Rampura, Dhaka. The case names former Border Guard Bangladesh officer Lt. Col. Redwanul Islam and three others as accused. Ruhul Amin, now 55, described being shot near Meradia market on July 19, 2024, while observing a student protest, and said he was taken to Mugda Medical College Hospital after being injured.

He told the tribunal that on July 20, 2024, he was forcibly discharged from the hospital after alleged threats from local Awami League members to doctors, who were told to kill the wounded with injections. Ruhul Amin said he received no medical documents and was later threatened at home by party members. He continued treatment at a private hospital and later learned through social media that security personnel were involved in the shooting. He appealed for justice against the accused.

Two of the four accused, Lt. Col. Redwanul Islam and Maj. Md. Rafat Bin Alam Mun, were produced in court from prison, while two former police officers remain fugitives.
