Thousands of protesters on Tuesday gathered in Bangladesh's capital Dhaka to demand justice for those killed during a mass uprising against the government of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in July, sources reported.
The "March for Unity" began Tuesday afternoon at the Central Shaheed Minar, with participants observing a minute of silence to honor those who lost their lives in the July protests.
The event, organised by the Students Against Discrimination, started at 4:00 pm.
Meanwhile, the Students Against Discrimination and the Jatiya Nagorik Committee announced they would stage further demonstrations if the government fails to issue the Proclamation of July Uprising by January 15, sources reported.
