Background of Shaheed's Death
August 5, 2024. Bangladeshis got the opportunity to become independent for the second time. For almost 16 years, the fascist government had been devouring the country and running a steamroller of torture over the people. On this day, fearing the 'Road March to Ganobhaban' by students and the public, the previous head of government hurriedly resigned and left the country. While everyone was busy with the victory procession, in some parts of the country, the henchmen of the oppressive government, unable to accept defeat, continued their attacks. Alamin Biswas a victim of one such attack.
On the 5th, in the afternoon, Alamin left home with 50 Taka from his father. He did not go with those with whom he used to go to the movement; he went with someone else that day. After that, there was no contact with him and his family. At around 5 pm, some of his friends came and said that Alamin was supposed to go with them but did not. But a while ago, Alamin called one of them and said, "Friend, save me."
After that, Alamin's family started searching for him frantically. Nearby houses, places where Alamin used to go, nearby hotels, and hospitals were all searched. But Alamin could not be found. On someone's advice, his mother searched the morgue and found him. He was identified at around 10 pm. May Allah grant Alamin Biswas Jannatul Firdaus.
Economic Condition of the Shaheed
Alamin's father used to work as a bus helper. During the Corona period, his right leg was broken in an accident. Later, although his leg bones were joined through treatment, one leg became 2 inches shorter than the other. As a result, he could no longer continue his previous work. Currently, he earns a living by driving an auto-rickshaw. Alamin's mother works at Ayesha Foundation for a low salary. Even with their combined income, it becomes difficult to run the family.
His parents had many dreams for their only son Alamin—that he would study and become a good person, get a good job, and their poverty would be alleviated. With Alamin's death, that dream remained just a dream.

So that there would be no disruption in his studies, he was not pressured by the family to earn money. Everyone liked and loved Alamin as a son." Local residents also loved Alamin very much. He was a very honest and principled man. He offered five daily prayers, and his behavior was praised in the area.
