At a protest rally on Saturday afternoon, Samantha Sharmin asserted that questionable laws cannot guarantee women’s safety. She emphasized that violence against women is incompatible with a peaceful society and that citizen safety, including women’s safety, is under threat in the country. She also criticized the government for suppressing women’s rights over the past 53 years, and in reference to the recent rape of an 8-year-old girl in Magura, Sharmin called for justice on the streets, stating that it proves the persistence of a fascist system. She highlighted the need to bring women’s leadership into the restructuring of the state’s power framework.
