BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has called for the intervention of the army chief following the death of Shamsuzzaman Dablue, general secretary of Jibannagar municipal BNP in Chuadanga, after his detention. In a statement issued on Tuesday, Fakhrul alleged that members of the security forces detained Dablue under the pretext of recovering weapons and subjected him to severe torture, leading to his death. He expressed deep sorrow and condemned the incident as inhumane and brutal.

Fakhrul stated that such acts by members of the security forces are harmful to the country and constitute a grave violation of existing laws. He emphasized that under the current interim government, people expect justice through the judicial system, not extrajudicial killings. He urged the army chief to ensure a fair investigation and justice for the incident.

In his statement, Fakhrul also conveyed condolences to Dablue’s bereaved family and prayed for the departed soul.
