Tea vendor Salauddin Liton testified as the 22nd witness in the murder case of Imam Hasan Tayim, son of a police officer, during the July Revolution in Dhaka’s Jatrabari area. On Tuesday, he gave his statement before International Crimes Tribunal-2 against former DMP Commissioner Habibur Rahman and 10 other accused. Liton described that on July 20, 2024, police entered his tea shop near Kajla footbridge, forced him to close and reopen the shutter, assaulted him and others, and dragged Tayim and two companions outside before gunfire was heard.
According to his testimony, police looted goods and cash worth about 25,000 taka from his shop and beat him with rifle butts. Later, he saw Tayim lying on the ground with gunshot wounds while police prevented them from taking him to the hospital. Two days later, Liton learned from a friend that Tayim had died at Dhaka Medical College Hospital.
The testimony was part of ongoing proceedings against 11 accused in the case, shedding new light on alleged police involvement in the 2024 Jatrabari incident.
