Rumors have been circulating that only Muslim victims of the July-August events will be granted "martyr" status. Cultural adviser Mostofa Sarwar Farooki addressed the issue, clarifying: “All who died in the July uprising are martyrs, regardless of faith.” Farooki said the symbolic graveyard near the July Memorial Museum will include names of all victims, across religions, genders, and professions. Muslim martyrs will be honored with symbolic graves, while others will be commemorated with plaques. A two-line poem will be inscribed outside the memorial: “The tyrant who fed off patriots’ blood / Now sleeps in the tombs of martyrs.”
