Shamim Hossain (23), a Dhaka University student contesting for DUCSU Vice President, has filed a General Diary (GD) with Shahbagh Police citing threats to his safety.

He claimed that his campaign — promising an independent student platform free from traditional party politics — has drawn conspiracies. “False propaganda linking me to political groups is spreading online and offline, putting my life at risk,” he wrote.

Shamim fears potential physical and psychological attacks before and after the election, expressing “severe insecurity” over his safety.
