The interim government on Sunday published a preliminary list of people who died during the student-led mass upsurge in July and August.
Earlier, on September 24, the government published a draft list of 708 names on the website of the Health Services Division under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
That draft list underwent further scrutiny, leading to the preliminary list.
The names and identities of the deceased were collected from various public and private hospitals.
The list can be accessed at https://medical-info.dghs.gov.bd/.
Quoting available public reports from the media and the protest movement itself, the UN rights body stated that between July 16 and August 11, more than 600 people were killed, according to the report titled “Preliminary Analysis of Recent Protests and Unrest in Bangladesh.”
Of these, nearly 400 deaths were reported from July 16 to August 4, while around 250 people were reportedly killed following the new wave of protests between August 5 and 6.
