Nahid Islam, Convenor of the National Citizens’ Party (NCP), has announced his return to Gopalganj, vowing to raise flags of the “July Uprising” in every household. In a Facebook post on Thursday (July 17), he accused the Awami League of being a “Mujibist terrorist organization” responsible for orchestrated attacks on their peaceful events. Claiming that their rallies were held under official instructions, Nahid said NCP members were attacked on their way back. He reported hearing of four deaths and stated, “We neither support nor expect extrajudicial killings.” He also demanded the arrest and trial of attackers in Gopalganj and across the country, and announced a march in Faridpur.
