  13. When rule of (no) law reigns supreme

    As the world catches a glimpse, but certainly not the full picture, of the horrors that have transpired in Bangladesh, a lack of transparency and a deliberate, disingenuous, and frankly dangerous effort by the authorities to conceal the truth has emerged. Should one be surprised? Probably not, given how this government has responded to any and all forms of civic dissent over the past decade, from any and all sources, political or not. Even for a political party that has established a track record of misusing its political activists in cahoots with law enforcement agencies to repress rather than protect citizens, this latest crackdown marks an alarming low.

  18. A promising life cut short by bullet 🔫

    Water, water, who needs water........?

    In a video shared on social media by Mir Mahbubur Rahman Snigdho, his twin brother Mir Mahfuzur Rahman Mugdho, 25, was seen distributing water to protesters after law enforcers fired teargas shells to disperse them in Azampur of Uttara on July 18.

    Merely 15 minutes later, he was gone. A bullet hit his forehead and pierced through his right ear after law enforcers opened fire.

    He was already dead when his friends brought him to Crescent Hospital.

    "Babumoshai, zindagi badi honi chahiye, lambi nahi" was the caption of his profile picture on Facebook. It can be roughly translated to -- life should be meaningful, not long.

    Mugdho did live a meaningful life.

    He joined the protest on July 18 to help students, who he believed were fighting for a just cause, said his elder brother Mir Mahmudur Rahman Deepto.

    From a young age, Mugdho always spoke up against injustice. He was a unit leader in the Armed Police Battalion Scout group and achieved the "National Service Award" from Bangladesh Scouts for his role in rescuing and evacuating people during the 2019 Banani fire, Deepto added.

    After completing his undergraduate degree in the Mathematics department of Khulna University, he got admitted to Bangladesh University of Professionals this March for his MBA.
