Incident Details & Martyrdom Narrative
Born on March 4, 2003, in Fulmalir Chala village, Ghatail thana, Dhalapara Union, Tangail district. Shaheed Hafez Sadik is the second of three sons of Mr. Lutfur Rahman, who works in Kuwait, and Mrs. Shahnaz Begum. His elder brother Shamim went to Singapore a year ago to earn a living. His father's dream was to make Shaheed Sadik a great Alim (Islamic scholar). For that purpose, Shaheed Sadik was educated in a madrasa from his childhood. After completing his Hifz (memorization of the Quran), Shaheed Sadik was admitted to the Kitab department of Jamia Deeni Islamia Madrasa in Abdullahpur with the aim of making him a great Alim. But before that dream could be fulfilled, this young life was lost to the bullet of the autocratic government's mercenary force.
Background of Martyrdom
In continuation of the revolution that had been going on throughout July, the anti-discrimination student movement announced a nationwide "Complete Shutdown" program on July 18, 2024. To implement the program, Shaheed Hafez Sadik, along with other students, gathered at Abdullahpur on July 19, 2024, at 12:00 noon. After staying for a while, everyone gathered again at three o'clock in the afternoon after praying Jummah. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the police and BGB opened fire indiscriminately. Suddenly a bullet hit Shaheed Sadik's head, and he fell to the ground. When the local people took him to the Adhunik Medical College, the on-duty doctor declared him dead. The head that contained the Holy Quran was shattered by the bullet of the hyena.
Martyr's Mother's Comment
"It's been a month and a half since my father was martyred. My father is lying in the grave with the bullet fired by the police in his stomach. I feel that my father is suffering because of the bullet in his stomach."
