During the July-August mass uprising, the crackdown on student protesters in the capital’s Jatrabari hotspot was led by the controversial Additional DIG, Mohammad Farid Uddin. Farid, who has been widely mocked on social media, infamously declared that it would take just “10 minutes” to clear the movement. In connection with a murder case, Farid Uddin has been referred to as the “Guardian of Genocide.” He is currently on the run, and authorities are actively searching for him. Farid was closely associated with a former Home Minister, who, when contacted, stated that he is on leave and denied any involvement in the killings.
