How He Became a Martyr
On July 19, 2024, Friday, after Jummah prayers, Amir Hossain went out with his rickshaw. Due to the terror created by the authoritarian government's police and the Jubo league's terrorist forces, he had been unable to take his rickshaw out for the past two days. There was no food at home, and his children were starving. Reluctantly, he had to come out onto the streets. Around 2:30 PM, in front of the BTV building in Rampura, he was trapped in police gunfire. A bullet struck him, and he died on the spot. The next morning, at 9 AM, after a funeral prayer in his native village in Barishal, he was buried at the local graveyard.
