Incident Details & Martyrdom Narrative

Shaheed Md. Yasir Sarkar was the beloved son of his parents. He was born on November 20, 2006, at his home in Shani Akhra, Dhaka. Shaheed Yasir's family lives in a permanent residence in Dhaka. He was raised and grew up in his Dhaka home. He was last studying in the second year of HSC at Narayanganj Government College. His father, Md. Md. Mofazzal Hossain, is a cloth merchant by profession and has a tailor shop. However, the establishment is currently closed due to Shaheed Yasir's death. Shaheed Yasir's mother, Bilkis Akhtar, is a homemaker.
He was the fourth of 5 siblings. Shaheed Yasir used to take his parents to the doctor. He used to take his younger sister to the madrasa. He used to do various family tasks with great sincerity. He was the center of the family. Shaheed's elder brother works in a software company and the second brother works in a private madrasa. Besides, his two younger sisters are studying. As his two elder brothers are professionals, he had to give time to the family. That boy was snatched away by the police force unleashed by the killer Hasina. The family seeks the martyr's status for their son.
Description of the Incident:
Shaheed Yasir Sarkar was a patriotic citizen. He actively participated in the quota reform movement of the anti-discrimination student movement. He was always vocal to protect the country from discrimination. On July 24, during the quota reform movement at Dhaka University, the terrorist forces of Chhatra League attacked the students during the student-public movement on the 16th. Numerous female students were also injured. After this, on the instructions of the Awami League MPs and ministers, a killing mission was carried out on the students and the public. The police's direct shooting campaign started from Abu Sayeed. They brutally killed about 1000 students across the country by shooting. Awami terrorist forces, police, BGB, and RAB were unleashed against the protesting students. The quota reform movement took the form of a one-point demand. That is, the fall of Sheikh Hasina. On this occasion, the March to Dhaka program was given on the 5th. Angry people from all over the country came to Dhaka. A flood of people came down to the streets of Dhaka. In the movement of millions of students and the public, the terrorists unleashed by the fascist Hasina killed numerous people that day as well. The victory celebration was going on from 3 o'clock. On the other hand, the hooligans were wreaking havoc. Hundreds of people were being killed. No one was spared, neither farmers nor workers.
On August 5th, Shaheed Yasir left his Shanir Akhra house at ten in the morning. His mother forbade him to join the movement. Still, he convinced her somewhat and went out on the streets. He joined the ranks of the oppressed students and the public. After the movement all day, he left for Ganabhaban at around three o'clock. Then suddenly, in the Kutubkhali area of Jatrabari, 100 to 150 policemen unleashed by the Awami League started firing indiscriminately. Many people were injured and killed by bullets around. There, Yasir was shot twice in both sides of his chest and once in the lower part of his stomach. Among them, two bullets entered his chest from behind and came out.
When he left for the movement in the morning, he told his mother, "Mom, I'm going out, I'll be back at noon." When his father came home at noon and asked his mother about his son, his mother said that Yasir had not returned home yet. When the victory celebration spread across the country at three o'clock, his father thought that his son might have gone to Ganabhaban. Even as the evening deepened, his son did not return home. Not finding him, everyone went out to look for him.
His elder sister Hafsa Bushra (20) posted a status on Facebook with her brother's picture seeking information. Someone sent some pictures to her phone. At ten o'clock at night, someone sent a bloody picture to her inbox from Dhaka Medical and asked if it was her brother? Hafsa broke down in tears after seeing the picture. Everyone asked what happened hearing the sound of crying? Then she showed her brother's bloody picture. A shadow of mourning fell all around in an instant.
Feelings of Family Members:
The martyr's father said: I suffer from various diseases. He always took me to the hospital for treatment. He also said that I do cloth and tailoring business but currently I am not doing business due to my son's grief. The martyr's elder sister Bushra said, Yasir used to come back from the movement and tell us stories. Even though I forbade him, he used to say, "If everyone is afraid and sits at home, how will it happen?"
Economic Condition of the Martyr's Family
The family runs well with the salary of the martyr Yasir's two elder brothers. They both earn about 35 thousand taka. However, the father is suffering from cancer and the mother is suffering from osteoporosis. The martyr Yasir's family is unable to bear the cost of treatment with the earned 35 thousand taka.
