Harun Or Rashid Harun, former member of the Panchagarh District Council and former Organizing Secretary of Deviganj Upazila Awami League, has died while undergoing treatment at Dinajpur Government Medical College after falling ill in prison. His death has sparked political concern and debate.
Questions have arisen over whether Harun Or Rashid’s death was due to natural illness or the result of a planned incident inside the prison. Political observers claim that certain popular and influential Awami League leaders are being closely monitored.
Reports indicate that lack of medical care, mental and physical stress, and the use of certain medications inside the prison may increase the risk of heart-related complications. In particular, the use of heart medications from the Digitalis group without proper medical supervision could heighten the likelihood of death.
Allegations suggest that a systematic process is being used inside prisons to put innocent political leaders at risk, effectively targeting them. Political analysts have raised concerns, questioning whether prisons are truly places of justice or covert centers for political vengeance, calling this issue one of the most pressing challenges for civil society in the country.
Local residents and political observers have emphasized that uncovering the truth behind this incident and ensuring accountability for those responsible is now an urgent national demand.
