3. Condemnation and Condolence Over the Murder of Zahidul Alam Jahangir
BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has strongly condemned the brutal killing of Zahidul Alam Jahangir, President of Mithamoin Upazila BNP in Kishoreganj, who was hacked to death by unidentified assailants at around 10:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 15 July 2026.
Expressing profound concern, grief, and condemnation, he stated:
“Although the authoritarian Awami regime has fallen, the violence and bloodshed perpetrated by its followers have not ceased. The brutal murder of Mithamoin Upazila BNP President Zahidul Alam Jahangir is another example of that continuing pattern. Their efforts to eliminate the nationalist democratic forces remain ongoing. However, killings and acts of violence will never restore the era of plunder and repression.
The late Zahidul Alam Jahangir firmly believed in the ideals of former President Shaheed Ziaur Rahman (Bir Uttam) and the philosophy of Bangladeshi nationalism. He was wholeheartedly committed to building Mithamoin Upazila BNP into a strong, dynamic, and well-organized unit. He remained steadfast in his loyalty to Begum Khaleda Zia and Mr. Tarique Rahman and actively participated in every democratic movement under their leadership. I pray that Almighty Allah grants him Jannah and gives strength and patience to his bereaved family.”
The BNP Secretary General prayed for the eternal peace of the deceased and extended heartfelt condolences to his family members, relatives, admirers, and well-wishers.
He also demanded the immediate arrest of those responsible for the murder of Zahidul Alam Jahangir and called for exemplary punishment in accordance with the law.
