Despite being shot during a mass uprising and critically injured, Rakib has yet to receive government recognition as a "July Warrior." Hailing from Kandapara village in Manikganj, Rakib is a student at DN Technical High School and works at a factory in Savar. On August 5, while participating in a student protest, he was allegedly beaten and shot by police near Savar Model Police Station. “Despite submitting all required documents, my name was excluded from the official list,” he said. His family and community continue to demand justice and recognition.
