Protesters have blocked Dhaka’s Shahbagh intersection over the death of writer Mustaq Ahmed under police custody.
They claimed that Mustaq had died on Thursday following excessive torture in Kashimpur High Security Prison in Gazipur and demanded justice.
Progressive Students’ Alliance started a procession from TSC area around 11am on Friday, paraded through Shahbagh and Paribagh, and later blocked the intersection, creating huge traffic congestion there and nearby routes.
