The family of BNP leader and former ward councilor Chowdhury Alam has filed a complaint with a tribunal seeking justice for his enforced disappearance. Alam was the first victim of enforced disappearance under the Awami League government. Reports indicate that 18 individuals, including Mofazzal Hossain Chowdhury Maya and Ziaul Ahsan Zia, have been named as accused. The family claims that on June 20, 2010, Alam was attacked by individuals identifying themselves as RAB officers while returning from United Hospital in Gulshan. Local residents captured a man named Billal, allegedly a member of RAB-1, and handed him over to Gulshan Police Station. On the night of June 25, law enforcement officials allegedly abducted Alam in a white microbus from Indira Road, Farmgate. Fourteen years have passed, but his whereabouts remain unknown.
