The Human Rights Support Society (HRSS) has strongly condemned and expressed deep concern over violent attacks on journalists, members of the Dhaka University Journalists’ Association, and Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU) leaders inside and around Shahbagh Police Station in Dhaka. The condemnation came through a statement signed by HRSS Executive Director Ejazul Islam on Friday. Based on media reports, the organization said at least ten journalists and several students were injured, with some hospitalized for treatment.
In its statement, HRSS said such assaults are not only attacks on individuals but also direct threats to press freedom, the right to information, and freedom of expression. The organization described the attacks on elected student leaders as a serious threat to democratic practice, student politics, and tolerance on campus. HRSS noted that violence inside a police station, despite law enforcement presence, signals a grave concern for public safety and the rule of law.
The group demanded an immediate impartial judicial investigation, identification and prosecution of attackers, proper medical care for the injured, and effective measures to ensure journalists’ safety and prevent political violence.
