Masud Alam told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prothomalo.com\/bangladesh\/capital\/e6bcn2jhwe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prothom Alo<\/a> that the detained teenager came from his village home to see the ruins of the Bangabandhu Memorial Museum at Dhanmondi 32.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=4669\">Shibir, NCP goons vandalise, torch Awami League\u2019s central office in Gulistan<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=4659\">Awami League\u2019s Lockdown: Yunus regime\u2019s blasts, arsons turn boomerang<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=4655\">Extrajudicial Killing: CMP chief\u2019s brushfire order ignites human rights firestorm<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The search of his house did not reveal any suspicious or negative information about him. Because of that, he was released from Dhanmondi police station in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After arresting the teenager, the police said that the behaviour of the detained teenager was suspicious. His words are confusing. He introduced himself as a student. Once he said that he belongs to Chhatra Dal. Another time, he said that he worked for Chhatra Shibir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at the documents found in the bag of the detained teenager, police suspected that he was associated with the banned organisation Chhatra League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Activists have condemned the detention of the teenager on social media while labelling the Yunus regime as a pro-Pakistani one for allowing vandalism and arson at the museum several times since last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) has specific conditions for the detention or arrest of children. In accordance with the principles of the UN&#8217;s CRC Charter, Bangladesh enacted the Children&#8217;s Act in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Censuring the Yunus regime, Mohammad Ali Arafat, former Information and Broadcasting State Minister, said that the teenager was detained for carrying books about the Liberation War in his bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added: \u201cThis student, who enjoys collecting historical and archaeological artifacts, simply picked up two souvenir books and a broken brick.
