This news article from the Dhaka Tribune reports that Bangladesh's Supreme Court (Appellate Division) stayed a High Court bail order for Sub-Inspector Sazzad Uz Zaman of Jatrabari police station, who was charged with the murder of Imam Hasan Taim during the July 2024 uprising.

One demand now
This news article from The Daily Star (Bangladesh) covers a massive protest rally held at the Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka, where the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement announced a single demand: the immediate resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her entire cabinet. Movement organizer Nahid Islam explicitly rejected the PM's offer for dialogue, also calling for Hasina to be brought to justice for killings and abductions linked to the quota reform protests. The rally drew tens of thousands of participants from across Dhaka and beyond, including teachers, lawyers, rickshaw-pullers, parents, and students, with simultaneous protests erupting in cities and districts nationwide such as Narayanganj, Feni, Jashore, and Thakurgaon.

The afterlife of an uprising
This is an opinion piece published in The Daily Star (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Maisha Islam Monamee, a student at the Institute of Business Administration, University of Dhaka. The article reflects on the two-year anniversary of the July 2024 uprising in Bangladesh, during which protesters — many of them students — were killed by the state, ultimately leading to the fall of the Sheikh Hasina government. The author argues that the genuine, grassroots grief and unity of July 2024 has since been hijacked and politicized by political parties who now invoke the uprising to advance their own agendas, particularly around elections. She emphasizes that the movement was not ideological but a desperate cry for basic human rights, and that the victims are now being reduced to slogans and political currency rather than remembered as human beings. The piece closes with a call to remember July honestly — not as a revolution or a brand, but as a moment of shared suffering that has since been betrayed.

'There is no reason not to accept OHCHR assistance'
This is an interview published in The Daily Star (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, featuring Sara Hossain, a senior Supreme Court advocate and honorary executive director of BLAST, discussing the role of the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in Bangladesh. Hossain argues that Bangladesh's accountability institutions have become severely dysfunctional, making OHCHR assistance both necessary and logical during the country's critical transitional period following the ouster of the Awami League government. She emphasizes that the OHCHR mission should supplement — not replace — existing institutions, helping with capacity-building, transitional justice, police and judicial reform, and documenting human rights violations from the July-August 2024 mass killings. While acknowledging some legal progress under the interim government — such as repealing the Digital Security Act and establishing reform commissions — Hossain warns that concerning practices persist, particularly arbitrary arrests, bail denials in politically sensitive cases, and a justice system not yet fully independent from political pressure.

DB detains coordinators as Palak says internet ‘just went down’
This news article from the Dhaka Tribune covers events from July 27, 2025, during a period of significant civil unrest in Bangladesh. The Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police detained Anti-Discrimination Student Movement (ADSM) coordinators Hasnat Abdullah and Sarjis Alam for "safety and questioning," following the earlier detention of three other ADSM coordinators, prompting university teachers to gather outside the DB office demanding transparency — a request that went unanswered. The article also covers the government's response to a nationwide internet disruption, with ICT State Minister Zunaid Ahmed Palak claiming the internet "just went down" rather than being deliberately shut down, while Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina visited the injured and characterized the broader unrest as an economic sabotage plot. Additional context includes reports of custodial torture of opposition figures, with BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir condemning the abuse, and a tearful plea from the wife of detained former DUCSU VP Nurul Haque Nur. The piece is set against a backdrop of over 9,000 arrests and at least 210 deaths since July 18, 2025, reflecting a severe political and security crisis in Bangladesh.

Nahid: Govt has no moral authority to mark July without proclamation, charter
This news article covers a statement made by Nahid Islam, convenor of the National Citizen Party (NCP) of Bangladesh, demanding that the government officially publish a "July Proclamation" and "July Charter" by August 5, 2025, to commemorate the July mass uprising (referred to as "July 36"). Nahid argues that the government had previously promised to publish these documents following consultations with political parties but failed to meet multiple deadlines. He warns that without issuing these documents, the government has no moral or constitutional authority to organize July anniversary commemorations. The article also outlines that the July Proclamation would formally document the student-led uprising and its goals, while the July Charter would establish a framework for fundamental state reforms and constitutional amendments, potentially enacted through a referendum or constituent assembly.

How we should build Brand Bangladesh
Summary: "How We Should Build Brand Bangladesh" This opinion piece by Ashfaq Zaman, published in The Daily Star on August 5, 2026, argues that Bangladesh should build its national brand around its authentic strengths rather than generic economic narratives like being an "emerging tiger economy." The author identifies three core pillars for Brand Bangladesh: its rich Bengali language and literary heritage (citing figures like Rabindranath Tagore and Lalon Shah, and noting Bengali is the fourth most spoken language globally), its proven national resilience (demonstrated through historical events from the 1952 Language Movement to the 2024 mass uprising), and its identity as a moderate Muslim nation characterized by social harmony and religious unity. The piece concludes that Bangladesh should actively leverage these distinctive qualities — language, resilience, and moderation — to craft a compelling and credible national identity on the world stage.

'Signing of July Charter by few parties doesn’t constitute national unity'
This news article from the Dhaka Tribune covers a statement made by Nahid Islam, convener of the National Citizens Party (NCP), at the launch of the party's workers' wing, "National Workers' Power," in Dhaka. He argued that the signing of the July Charter by a limited number of political parties does not represent genuine national unity, stating that true unity requires participation from workers and people across various professions. Islam also criticized the interim government for forming six election-focused reform commissions while neglecting labor and public service reforms, and referenced worker oppression during Sheikh Hasina's 16-year rule, including police killings of protesting workers in early 2024. He held up the July popular uprising — characterized by cross-sector participation without party banners — as his model for authentic national unity.

12 names removed from ‘July fighters’ gazette
This news article from Bangladesh's Dhaka Tribune (published January 31, 2026) reports that the government removed 12 individuals from the official "July Fighters Gazette," a registry recognizing participants in the anti-discrimination student movement (July Uprising). The Ministry of Liberation War Affairs cancelled their recognition under the Martyrs' Families and July Fighters Welfare and Rehabilitation Ordinance, 2025, citing false information used to gain inclusion on the list. The 12 individuals, all from the 'G' category of July fighters, came from Dinajpur district (5 people) and Chandpur district (7 people). This action follows a larger cancellation in October 2025, when 128 July fighters were similarly removed for fraudulent listings or duplicate entries.

July 21: Court revises quota system; Nahid tortured, hospitalized
This news article from the Dhaka Tribune covers events of July 21, 2024, during Bangladesh's quota reform protests, referred to as the "Monsoon Revolution." On that day, 21 people were killed across Dhaka and Narshingdi amid ongoing unrest, while the Supreme Court's Appellate Division issued a landmark ruling replacing the previous 43% quota system with a merit-based system covering 93% of public service recruitment, retaining only a 7% quota for freedom fighters, indigenous communities, and persons with disabilities. The article also details the torture and hospitalization of Anti-Discrimination Student Movement (ADSM) coordinator Nahid Islam, who was found abandoned on Purbachal Bridge after 24 hours in captivity and reported physical and mental abuse during interrogation. From his hospital bed, he announced a 48-hour suspension of protest activities while demanding the lifting of curfew and restoration of internet access. The piece also highlights the political conflict between the government, which blamed BNP-Jamaat operatives for the violence, and the BNP, which accused the government of deflecting responsibility for the crisis.
