Locals and relatives of the deceased staged a road blockade and protest rally on the Bhairab-Kishoreganj regional highway in Bhairab, Kishoreganj, demanding justice for the murder of expatriate Rokon. The program was held around 11 am on Friday in the Kalikaprasad area of the regional highway, causing hundreds of vehicles to get stuck on both sides of the road and creating a long traffic jam that halted traffic for over an hour and a half.
During the blockade, protesters demanded a proper investigation into the murder, the swift arrest of those involved, and exemplary punishment. Maria Begum, the younger sister of the deceased Rokon, stated that after her brother returned home on leave from Singapore, he was called out of the house at night, brutally murdered, and hanged by his hands and feet from a tree branch in front of the house. Even though a month has passed since the incident, the police have neither uncovered the mystery of the murder nor identified the killers.
Notably, the slain expatriate youth Rokon Ahmed is the son of Sattar Mia from the Nayahati area of Kalikaprasad Union in Bhairab. Locals have been carrying out various programs demanding justice and the arrest of the accused since the murder took place.
