As Bangladesh faces political unrest, Sharif Omar Hadi, brother of the late Sharif Osman Hadi, has accused a faction within the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government of plotting his brother’s murder to disrupt the upcoming February 2026 elections. Speaking at a gathering organized by Inqilab Moncho in Dhaka, Omar Hadi criticized the government, alleging their involvement in Osman Hadi’s death to sabotage the election process.
Omar emphasized his brother’s support for timely national elections in February and urged authorities to ensure a fair trial for the perpetrators to maintain a conducive election environment. He warned that failure to deliver justice for Osman Hadi could lead to consequences for the government, hinting at potential repercussions.
Inqilab Moncho’s Member Secretary, Abdullah Al Jaber, reiterated the group’s ultimatum to the interim government, demanding swift identification and arrest of those responsible for the killing. The organization previously threatened to initiate a movement against the Yunus-led interim government if justice was not served in the murder case of their spokesperson, Hadi.
The group’s call for resignations of key officials, including the Home Advisor and law advisor, underscores the escalating tensions following Hadi’s death. Inqilab Moncho also pressed for expeditious judicial proceedings, seeking completion of the Hadi murder trial within 30 working days through a speedy trial tribunal, amidst growing violence targeting various sectors in Bangladesh.
