Shaheed Miraj

Shaheed Miraj was born on February 12, 2006, into an extremely poor family. His birthplace is Nav Kumar village in 2 No. Purba Ilisha Union, Bhola district. Currently, they live in a slum in Mirpur 6 area of Dhaka. His father, Mr. Md. Maksud Farid, is a day laborer, and his mother, Mrs. Minara Begum, is a housewife. Mirajul Islam was a construction worker by profession.
Shaheed Miraj was a very polite person. He never cursed anyone and was not involved with any political party. He was injured by bullets fired by Awami League terrorists during the July Revolution movement in 2024 and embraced Martyrdom.
Family Condition
Shaheed Miraj's family's economic condition is very dire. They have seven family members. Miraj's father works as a day laborer, and his mother, Minara Begum, works in houses. His younger brother, Md. Rayhan, is 15 years old, and Md. Ashraful is 6 years old. Due to family hardship, Shaheed Miraj dropped out of school and started working as a construction worker. They barely managed to survive on their limited income, eating dal and rice.
Detailed Incident
The day was August 4, 2024. Like every day, Miraj left home to go to work. On the way, he encountered a clash. At that time, a fierce clash was going on between the police and Awami League terrorists and the protesters in the Mirpur 10 area. The police and Awami League terrorists were firing indiscriminately at the protesters. Many protesters were injured and fell to the ground, covered in blood. The surrounding black asphalt road had turned red with blood. The surroundings turned into a battlefield with the terrible sound of tear gas, bombs, grenades, bullets, and gunshots. It was as if a piece of Palestine was on the chest of Bengal.
In such a situation, suddenly a bullet pierced Shaheed Miraj's left chest and came out. He fell to the ground instantly. He died there. Later, his body was recovered and taken to his village home for burial.
