The Inqilab Mancha has announced a new round of blockade programs across eight divisional cities, following a temporary suspension of its ongoing sit-in at Shahbagh in Dhaka. The movement, demanding justice for the killing of Shaheed Sharif Osman Hadi, was briefly eased on Saturday night after the arrival of Syeda Rizwana Hasan, adviser to the interim government on environment, forest, and climate change. Protesters paused slogans and blockades after hearing her remarks, but declared that demonstrations would continue until visible progress in the trial process. Rizwana Hasan assured demonstrators that the interim government was actively pursuing justice, stating that a specific and accurate charge sheet would be submitted in early January and that the trial would be completed within the government’s tenure. She also mentioned diplomatic efforts regarding fugitives and said India had been formally informed. The adviser urged calm and announced that the Dhaka Metropolitan Police would brief the media on the investigation’s progress the following morning. Inqilab Mancha confirmed that no one would remain at Shahbagh overnight and that the next phase of protests would begin at 2 p.m. after reviewing the DMP press conference.
