Workers of Sonamasjid Land Port in Chapainawabganj hold demonstrations yesterday demanding speedy trial into the murder of their co-worker and local Jubo League leader Monirul Islam.
Mystery shrouds the murder of Monirul, treasurer of Sonamasjid Land Port Clearing and Forwarding (C&F) Agents Association, even 30 days after the incident.
Five protesting organisations gave a 72-hour ultimatum to find out the killers at a human chain and a press conference held as part of day-long protest yesterday.
They warned of indefinite strike from November 26 in the land port if the demand was not met.
The organisations vowed to continue their protest and announced to submit the memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner, Police Superintendent and Shibganj Upazila Nirbahi Officer on Sunday.
Monirul was murdered on October 24 at the stadium area under Shibganj municipality. Six persons including his three colleagues were arrested in this connection.
In the press conference, his family members and the C&F leaders were present.
