Family members of those injured and killed in the July-August movement have staged a sit-in protest outside Gate 5 of the Secretariat, demanding the fulfillment of three key demands. The protesters, under the banner of “Injured and Martyred Families of the People’s Uprising”, gathered at 1:00 PM on Wednesday.
Earlier in the day, they had assembled at Shahbagh before marching towards the Secretariat. Their demands include:
1. Categorization of the injured protesters into two groups for proper support.
2. A special protection law for the families of the injured and deceased.
3. Access to proper medical treatment, psychological counseling, and an emergency hotline to address their concerns.
