Bangladesh Labour Party Chairman Dr. Mostafizur Rahman Iran has expressed deep sorrow over the death of Sharif Osman Hadi, spokesperson of Inquilab Manch, who succumbed to injuries sustained in a gun attack by alleged fascist forces. Hadi died while receiving treatment in Singapore after being critically wounded in a daylight shooting incident.

In a statement signed by the party’s publicity secretary, Dr. Iran described Hadi as a fearless voice against fascism and a lifelong advocate for democracy and justice. He said Hadi’s death represents not only a personal loss but also a blow to freedom of expression and the democratic movement in Bangladesh. The Labour Party leader demanded the immediate identification and exemplary punishment of those responsible for the attack.

Observers note that the incident underscores growing concerns about political violence and shrinking civic space in Bangladesh. Hadi’s death may further galvanize pro-democracy activists and intensify calls for accountability and political reform.
