Mashahid Ahmed:
The student community has formed a human chain and protest rally demanding the withdrawal of false cases in Srimangal and the end of immoral activities under the guise of resorts.
In the afternoon, more than two hundred women, men, school, college and madrasa students from Dilbarnagar village of Sadar Union participated in the human chain under the banner of ‘Aware Student Community of Dilbarnagar Village’ at Srimangal Chowmuhani. At that time, the students and villagers complained that – two years ago, a certain Nazrul Islam Shaheen from Srimangal town rented a house in Dilbarnagar village and started a resort business called Hillpark. Various anti-social activities including loud music playing, drug consumption, prostitution continued in the resort. Since there are schools, mosques, madrasas, and orphanages nearby, Muslims and school-college-going students have to face embarrassing situations. Despite repeated protests from the locals, no remedy has been found.
The speakers also said that during the political change of August 5, the angry students attacked and vandalized this resort and closed it. The students arrested 5 women from there. These women admitted to being involved in prostitution. Since then, the owner of the resort, Nazrul Islam Shaheen, has filed one case after another against the innocent students of the village and has tortured a young man from the village. Recently, Shaheen Mia has changed the name of the resort and is again engaging in anti-social activities. A harassment case has been filed against the protesting students of the village for protesting the eviction of the brothel operated in the name of Shaheen’s resort from the village. They demanded that the case be withdrawn immediately and Shaheen be arrested.
The human chain was attended by Md. Mujahidul Islam, leader of the anti-discrimination student movement, Niloy Tanmoy of the National Citizens Committee, Monir Mia, Kamrun Nahar, Kamal Mia, Tajul Islam, Mamun Mia, Md. Alauddin, Sharif Mia, college students Ali Haider, Naeem Hossain, Imran Mia, Maharam Ali Hossain, and others on behalf of the villagers.
