Abu Sayed’s death in police firing: Cops’ FIR runs counter
Video footage shows police shooting at Begum Rokeya University student Abu Sayed, who posed no physical threat to the law enforcers, during the quota reform protest near the campus on July 16. He died soon afterwards.
But contradicting what is evident, the First Information Report (FIR) filed by police says Sayed was not a victim of police firing.
“The protesters fired weapons and threw chunks of bricks from different directions, and at one stage, a student was seen falling to the ground,” reads the report, adding that classmates took Sayed, 23, to Rangpur Medical College Hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.

Following the shutdown of factories and mills for four days, apparel exporters are planning to keep their production units open on Friday and pay overtime bills to meet lead times as they believe increasing productivity can offset a portion of losses.
Due to the situation over the past week, suppliers had to cancel hundreds of pre-scheduled meetings and factory inspections. They also could not communicate with foreign buyers due to an internet blackout, which began on July 18 and persisted until July 23.
The disruption in production, delivery and shipment took place at a time when the sector is struggling to recover its.
