Medical students in Rangpur blocked roads on Tuesday night demanding the release of a fellow student arrested in connection with a recent death case. The blockade began around 7:30 p.m. in front of the city’s central jail and was lifted at about 9:45 p.m. after police assurances. The protest disrupted road communication between Rangpur and nearby districts including Nilphamari, Dinajpur, Thakurgaon, and Panchagarh.
The incident followed the death of HSC examinee Nuzhat Jahan, who fell from the rooftop of the North View Hotel on Monday evening. Her father filed a case the next day, naming Rangpur Medical College student Shahriar Ahmed Sakin and several others as accused. Students argued that the arrest was made without clear evidence and demanded a transparent investigation.
Rangpur Metropolitan Police’s Crime Division Deputy Commissioner Mahfuzur Rahman confirmed the arrest of Sakin, stating that the investigation into the hotel rooftop death is ongoing.
