Bangladeshi police eject 3 protest leaders from hospital

Three student protest leaders in Bangladesh were forcibly removed from the hospital by plainclothes police officers, despite objections from hospital staff. Nahid Islam, Asif Mahmud, and Abu Baker Majumder were being treated for injuries allegedly caused by police brutality. The incident has sparked outrage and calls for justice from the public.

The students, part of a group advocating against discriminatory civil service hiring rules, led protests that turned violent, resulting in clashes with security forces and numerous casualties. The government has recently addressed some of the protesters’ demands, but criticism against excessive use of force and lack of accountability remains.

Despite the challenges, student leaders are determined to continue their fight for justice and accountability, urging for the resignation of government officials implicated in the violence. The situation in Bangladesh remains tense, with the public demanding transparency and reform in the face of ongoing unrest.
