He called the incident motivated and demanded the withdrawal of the false case filed.

In a joint statement, the leaders said, “We demand the immediate withdrawal of the false case filed against 12 leaders and activists of BNP and its affiliated organizations at Rupganj Police Station. Enraged by this incident, the evil group involved local Awami League leaders and activists in a false case of murder of an anti-discrimination student with the intention of harassing them with full intention and with the direct and indirect cooperation of some corrupt officials of the administration. In fact, the murder of the anti-discrimination movement did not take place. The investigating officer of the murder case filed in the court on the grounds that he was killed by a friend, Sub-Inspector (SI) Asad, said, “I have initially investigated and found that Jisan was killed due to a land dispute. Currently, the case is under investigation under the CID.” Assistant Superintendent of Police (C, Circle Mehedi Hasan said in this regard that after filing a case at the police station, a case has been filed in the court again.

It is learned that on July 30, Donia University degree student Towhidul Alam Jisan (21), son of Alamgir Molla, a resident of Ward No. 2 of Bhulta Union, was stabbed to death by a friend while buying and selling land on the side of the road in Mithab Sikder Bari area. Among them, 12 people, including senior BNP leaders, were identified as student party leaders and activists. Former Awami League MP Gazi Golam Dastagir (70), former Rupganj Union Chairman Salauddin (52), former Daudpur Union Chairman Jahangir Master (58), and 15-20 other unidentified accused were named. In that case, Taijul Islam, former leader of BNP in Ward No. 2 of Bhulta Union in Rupganj, former president of Ward No. 2 Nazrul Molla, president of BNP’s Ward No. 2 student party Ankan Bhuiyan, vice-president of Ward No. 2 Nurul Islam Nuru, member of Jubo Dal Liman, member of Jubo Dal Sanjib, and member of Jubo Dal Nafiz Bhuiyan were named as accused.

Calling the case false and conspiratorial, Jubo Dal Central Joint General Secretary Mosharraf Hossain said that if a case is filed against the leaders and activists of BNP and its affiliates while hiding the real accused, action will be taken against them. Former Joint Organizing Secretary of Rupganj Upazila Md. Shukkur Ali Molla said, “Jisan Molla was murdered by a friend, his house is next to my house.” Former General Secretary of Jubo Dal of Ward No. 2 Murad Hossain said the same thing. Former Organizing Secretary of Bhulta Union Jahangir Molla, the uncle of the deceased, said in an interview on various television channels on August 1 that the terrorists killed his nephew Jihad. And his grandfather Awlad Hossain said that Sumi’s tenant Naeem killed Jisan over a land issue. 28 people, including the previous two, have been charged 1 month and 10 days after Jisan’s murder. All BNP leaders and activists of Rupganj participated in the student-public movement. “They played a leading role in the fall of the fascist government. I don’t understand how all those BNP leaders and activists are being made defendants in this case filed.”

Earlier, on Tuesday, July 30, at 8 pm, 10/12 friends were hanging out near Sikder’s house. At the instigation of friends Ankan and Zahirul, Jisan suddenly stabbed his friend Naeem with a knife. Then all the friends hugged the two and reconciled. Some time later, at 8:30 pm, Jisan rushed to kill Naeem again. The killer Naeem stabbed Jisan repeatedly and fled. Immediately, their friend Saikat Ankan and Zahirul took him to a private hospital in Murapara, where the doctor on duty referred him to Dhaka Medical College Hospital. When he was admitted to Dhaka Medical College Hospital that night, the doctor declared him dead. Md. Bachchu Mia, the police in-charge of Dhaka Medical College Hospital on duty at that time, confirmed the news of Jisan’s death.

Nayeem and his father Kamal are the first accused in the case filed by the deceased Jisan’s father Alamgir Mollah on Wednesday, July 31, in the case of the murder of Towhidul Alam Jisan (21). The then Assistant Superintendent of Police Habibur Rahman said that Jisan was killed over a land deal.

Regarding the false accusation of leaders and activists of Bhulta Union BNP and its affiliated organizations in false cases, former Narayanganj district volunteer party convener Mahbubur Rahman claimed that BNP leaders and activists have been implicated in the anti-discrimination movement case in collusion with Awami League leaders and activists.
