An auto-rickshaw driver, Ramzan Munshi (28), succumbed to gunshot wounds early Friday at Dhaka Medical College Hospital, bringing the death toll from the recent Gopalganj clashes to five.

Ramzan was shot while passing the court area during a protest march by the National Citizen Party (NCP). Earlier casualties include Dipto Saha, Ramzan Kazi, Sohel, and Imon Talukdar. Authorities have deployed military forces and partially lifted curfews, arresting 20 more individuals, raising the total arrests to 45.
