For the second consecutive day, students of Rajshahi University (RU) have blocked the Dhaka-Rajshahi highway, protesting against sexual violence and demanding the death penalty for rapists. The protest began at 11:30 AM on Paris Road inside the university and later moved to the main gate at around 12:15 PM. Protesters chanted slogans such as “Death for rapists,” “No place for rapists in our golden Bangladesh,” and “Catch every rapist, execute them one by one.” The demonstration reflects growing outrage over gender-based violence in the country.
