A protest rally on Friday demanded immediate compensation and full rehabilitation for the families of those killed and injured during the July-August uprising.

The rally also called for the trial of the terrorists responsible for the violence.

The rally, held at Mirpur 10 Circle, was organised by the Jatiya Nagorik Committee and attended by representatives from various areas of Mirpur.

The speakers said that the July-August killers are still roaming openly and threatening the martyrs' families. They also called for justice for Advocate Saiful Islam, who was killed in Chattogram.

Yunus Ali Masud, a representative of the Jatiya Nagorik Committee from Pallabi, said that the country remains unstable: “The Awami League’s evil forces are collaborating with ISKCON to destabilize the state. If the criminals are caught, peace will be restored,” he said.

Ariful Islam Arif, a central member of the Committee, demanded the immediate arrest of all police officers directly involved in the July-August murders. “Compensation should be delivered to the families of the martyrs, and the injured must receive full medical treatment,” he added.

Arif also highlighted the death of Advocate Saiful Islam, calling for the prosecution of those responsible. He further criticized ISKCON, accusing the group of sabotaging various movements, and called for its ban.

Representatives of the committee stressed that the current government, being the result of a mass movement, should act more decisively and expedite the legal process to bring justice to the victims.

They further emphasized the need for a strict approach to ensure that those behind the violence are held accountable.
