Current State of the Family:
The family of Shaheed Md. Al-Amin is in extremely poor financial standing. The family does not have an earner. In 2020, Al-Amin's father passed away due to COVID-19. He worked in the fish industry before to his passing. Al-Amin assumed responsibility for the family after his father passed away. However, he was unable to hold on for long. He was attacked by a killer and died too soon. His younger brother Abdur Rahim has recently begun working in a hotel to pay for two meals a day. The family is supported by his limited wages. His mother and younger son now make up the family. Their only earning son passed away, leaving them without a guardian. They were already in a precarious financial position, and now things are significantly worse. These days, his mother spends her days pleading with others for assistance.
Incident of Martyrdom:
He was shot and injured in a joint attack by police and the Chhatra League under the Mohakhali flyover on 19-07-2024 at 6 pm. He was being martyred on 20-07-2024 at 12 am while undergoing treatment at the hospital. Al-Amin's father died after contracting COVID during the pandemic. There was no one to take care of the family. Young Al-Amin took on the responsibility of supporting the family with his tender hands. It was not possible for him to run his father's business. So, it was not possible to continue his studies either. Then he came to Dhaka in search of work. He used to send home whatever he earned by doing small jobs. He had no guardian other than his mother. So, he was his mother's only hope. He started working in a garage and got married to support his family. But that marriage was not happy for him. He was often harassed due to family problems. The lack of a father and the economic pressure always kept him in despair. Seeing the logical demands of the anti-discrimination student movement, Al-Amin joined the movement. He joined the dream of a free and beautiful country. This orphaned boy helped and supported the students in various ways. This struggle of students and the people continued throughout the month of July. The government cracked down on the students.
On July 19, the terrorist forces of the police, Awami League, and Jubo League targeted and attacked the students and the people. Shaheed Md. Al-Amin (Roni) was injured and fell under the Mohakhali flyover after being shot by the police and the Chhatra League's helmet forces. He was shot in the chest on July 19 at 6 pm and died at Dhaka Medical College at 12 am.
Feelings about the Martyr:
Mohammad Riyad said, "My nephew took on all the responsibilities of the family after his father's death. But now, with his death, the family is helpless. There are no relatives to look after them. Due to family problems, his in-laws have put their family in various problems. They have become entangled in various legal troubles."
Al-Amin's mother said, "My son was my only hope. After his father's death, Al-Amin was my reliance. Today I have lost that support too. After his death, although financial help came from various places, his son's wife took it away. I have debts that I am unable to repay. If you can provide any assistance, please give some to me."
Proposals for the Martyr's Family:
1. Arrangement for housing. 2. Arrangement for debt repayment. 3. Help to cover the educational expenses of the martyr’s younger brother.
