Council leaders and activists, led by Akhtar Hossain, a former Daksh secretary for social services, erected the pillar under the sign “Abaar Fahad Smriti Sangsad” at midnight Tuesday. Akhtar has proclaimed himself the organizer of the Abrar Fahad Memorial Parliament.
On the plaque of the monument is written ‘My journey in eternity, at the end of infinite space’. Abrar Fahad also used the statement on his Facebook profile.
Akhtar says they have built eight pillars as symbols of sovereignty, democracy, mass defense, community harmony, economic self-sufficiency, protection of indigenous industries-agriculture and river-forest-port, cultural freedom and human dignity.
“As you know, BUET Abrar student was brutally martyred by BCL terrorists the same night a year ago today while speaking out against Indian aggression. That is why we have named this facility Eight Pillars Against Aggression.
“We believe that the eight pillars will point to eight things. If we can implement these eight themes, then we can build a Bangladesh free from aggression. “
Abrar, a resident of BUET’s Sher-e-Bangla Hall and a sophomore in the Department of Electrical Engineering, was tortured to death in the room of a BCL leader on the night of October 8.
The next day, October 8, her father filed a lawsuit against 19 students at the Chawkbazar Police Station. After a five-week investigation, the police formally charged a total of 25 people, all of them students of different years at BUET and involved with the Chhatra League.
On September 15, a trial court in Dhaka ordered the trial of the 25 defendants. The case is currently in the trial stage.
Akhtar Hossain, leader of the Student Rights Council, organized a protest rally in front of eight pillars at the Palashi intersection on Wednesday afternoon, as the trial had not ended even a year after Abrar’s murder.
