Hadi’s brother files GD seeking family security

By Staff Correspondent

Omar Bin Hadi, elder brother of slain Inqilab Moncho spokesperson Osman Sharif Bin Hadi, has filed a general diary with Shahbagh Police Station seeking security for himself and Hadi’s son, citing threats and fears of posible attacks.

The GD was lodged around 6:30pm yesterday, said the police station’s Officer in-Charge Mohammad Moniruzzaman.

In the GD, Omar said since Hadi’s killing, he has feared that he and Hadi’s child could also be targeted, as those involved in the murder have yet to be arrested. 

He also alleged that various groups and Facebook accounts have been spreading defamatory propaganda against their family on social media and issuing death threats against him.

The OC said, “We are looking into the matter and taking legal action accordingly.”

Attempts to reach Omar for comments were unsuccessful.

On December 12 last year, Hadi, an independent aspirant for the Dhaka-8 constituency, was shot in Dhaka’s Paltan area while campaigning. He died on December 18 while undergoing treatment in Singapore.
