Police in Dhamrai, Dhaka, have submitted an investigation report favoring four influential Awami League leaders accused in the murder case of Shaheed Sad during the July Revolution. In response, members of the National Citizen Party (NCP) central convening committee held a press conference protesting the report and demanding a reinvestigation.

The four leaders named in the case are Khaled Masud Khan Laltu, former chairman of Sanora Union Parishad; Md Awlad Hossain, former chairman of Somvag Union Parishad; Masum Khan, vice president of Dhamrai Upazila Awami League; and Ahmad Al Zaman, a member of the same unit. NCP leader Asadul Islam Mukul alleged that the police report sought to exempt these influential figures instead of uncovering the truth, raising questions among victims’ families and locals about the fairness of the investigation.

The NCP demanded removal of the current officer-in-charge, investigating officer, and circle SP from the case, and called for a fresh, impartial investigation by a higher authority. They urged the administration and law enforcement agencies to review the disputed report to ensure justice.
