Police in Boalkhali, Chattogram, arrested two members of the banned Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) for chanting 'Joy Bangla' during a relative’s wedding ceremony. The arrests took place late Saturday night at a community center on Arakan Road in the Amtal area. The detainees were identified as Md Abdul Aziz, 26, assistant secretary of Haji Nurul Haque Degree College BCL unit, and Md Raihan, 23, a member of the same unit.

According to police, the two men shouted the slogan during the bride’s mehendi ceremony at a house in Paschim Gomdondi on Friday. A video of the incident was later uploaded to Facebook, leading to their arrest the following day. Boalkhali Police Station Officer-in-Charge Mahfuzur Rahman stated that both individuals were sent to court as suspects in a case related to the July movement attack.

The report did not include further details about the case or the broader political context surrounding the arrests.
