A detainee named Nurul Alam, 45, died less than 15 hours after being taken to Chattogram Central Jail. He was identified as the joint convener of the banned Satykania Upazila unit of the Youth League. Prison authorities said that on Wednesday morning, while in the import ward of the jail, Alam complained of chest pain and breathing difficulties. He was first taken to the prison hospital and then to Chattogram Medical College Hospital, where doctors declared him dead.

According to the report, Nurul Alam had been arrested on Tuesday by a team from the Detective Branch in connection with a 2024 explosives case filed at Satykania Police Station. After being handed over to the police station, he was presented before the court and later sent to Chattogram Central Jail in the afternoon. Jail superintendent Iqbal Hossain stated that Alam appeared healthy upon arrival and bore no signs of injury. His condition deteriorated suddenly the next morning, leading to his death despite prompt medical attention.

The report did not mention any official investigation or further action following the incident.
