JAGPA Vice President Rashed Pradhan has condemned the brutal murder of scrap dealer Sohag in Mitford, allegedly killed for refusing to pay extortion. He said the act resembled the violent culture of "logi-boitha" (club and oar) associated with past Awami League politics. Pradhan argued such barbarism is unacceptable in a nation rebuilt through the sacrifice of countless martyrs. JAGPA has announced a national campaign against Indian aggression and called for a protest outside the Indian High Commission on August 6, demanding the return of what they call "killer Hasina."
