College teacher Mukib Mia was arrested from the residence of the Deputy Registrar of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University for distributing leaflets in Dhaka demanding the resignation of the interim government. As there was already a case against him at Shahbagh police station, he was detained and sent there. He faced further trouble after pictures of him distributing the leaflets—reportedly under the directive of Sheikh Hasina, who is accused of crimes against humanity—went viral on social media.
