Dhaka Metropolitan unit of the National Citizen Party (NCP) staged a protest rally on Saturday afternoon demanding the cancellation of Awami League’s registration and its trial.
Party leaders and activists gathered in front of the National Museum at Shahbagh at 3 pm, chanting slogans, reports UNB.
NCP member secretary Akhter Hossen, chief organiser for the southern region Hasnat Abdullah, were also present.
The protest aims to call for the trial of Sheikh Hasina and the Awami League over allegations of enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and genocide, along with the cancellation of the party’s registration and a ban on its political and organisational activities.
Meanwhile, "July Warriors", a forum formed by the families of the martyrs and injured victims of the July uprising, on Saturday gave the interim government 48 hours to ban Awami League.
They issued the ultimatum from a protest rally held at the Raju Sharok Bhaskarjya on the Dhaka University campus.
Several organisations and students from Dhaka University also staged a rally on Saturday, demanding a ban on the Awami League.
