Attack and vandalism carried out at Bangladesh Student Union district office in Bogura on the night of February 6

An attack and vandalism took place at the district office of the Bangladesh Student Union in Bogura on the night of February 6. Allegations have been raised that portraits of martyrs of the mass uprising were torn down during the incident, sparking intense anger among Student Union leaders and activists. According to the organization's leaders, a portrait of martyr Rizvi, who was killed by police gunfire during the movement in Uttara, was placed in front of the office in his memory. However, the attackers tore down that portrait along with other posters and vandalized the office.

The organization stated that the Student Union played a significant role in the anti-government movement in Bogura. The organization has long been waging an anti-fascist movement and has also led from the front in the recent mass uprising. During the movement, the organization's leaders and activists were forced to leave their homes due to insecurity and even sustained injuries from police gunfire. Yet, they continued the movement and remained active on the streets in the face of repression.

They claimed that this attack was carried out with the intention of suppressing their movement and erasing the memory of the martyrs. As a result of the attack, posters and portraits of the martyrs, which served as symbols of the movement, were torn down, creating outrage among the protesters. The organization has strongly condemned the incident and demanded that the culprits be brought to justice swiftly.
