Md. Mazidul

Martyr Mazidul was born on January 10, 2004, in the village of Purbo Gamaritola, Dhobaura, Mymensingh. His father is Abdul Mannan Khan (53), and his mother is Rozia Khatun. He was the youngest of five siblings. The studious Shaheed Mazidul memorized the Holy Quran at the age of 15 in 2019. He was receiving Islamic education at Maona's Jamia Forkania Madrasa with the aim of becoming a prominent scholar.
When the nationwide anti-discrimination movement began, he joined the movement. He also participated in the final victory day, i.e., August 5th. At one point during the movement, the students and the public surrounded the BGB. The BGB fired to disperse the students and the public. Martyr Mazidul Islam Khan was shot at the scene. He was shot in the lower abdomen. When no hospital in Maona accepted him, he was admitted to Mymensingh Swadesh Hospital. He died there on August 10th while undergoing treatment.
Background of Martyrdom
On August 5th, the anti-discrimination students and the public announced a program to besiege the Ganabhaban, the safe haven of the murderer Hasina. No one in the country knew what was going to happen today? Everyone was in extreme fear and anxiety. People from different regions of the country had gathered in Dhaka to implement the March to Dhaka program, but no one could take to the streets. However, different things were happening in the inner circles of the administration. The murderer Hasina was preparing to resign, but her henchmen still occupied the streets. They were shooting at any procession they saw on the streets. At around three in the afternoon, during the heated moment of the movement, the students and the public surrounded the BGB from all sides. When the situation became heated, the BGB opened direct fire to disperse the movement. Many young lives were lost in that shooting. Shaheed Mazidul Islam Khan was seriously injured by two bullets in his lower abdomen. Although the injured Mazidul was taken to various hospitals, they refused to admit him. After much effort, he was finally admitted to Swadesh Hospital in Mymensingh. But unfortunately, he died there on August 7th while undergoing treatment.
