At that time, Bangladesh had expressed concern over the continuous provocative statements of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and sought cooperation from India to stop the killer of Inquilab Manch spokesperson Sharif Usman Hadi from escaping to India. Bangladesh requested that if the accused crosses the Indian border, he should be immediately arrested and handed over to Bangladesh.

Dipu was murdered due to dispute in the factory
According to the Dhaka Tribune report, 27-year-old Dipuchandra Das was a floor manager in a garment factory named Pioneer Knitwears (BD) Limited. He had recently appeared for the promotion examination for the post of supervisor. Senior manager of the factory, Saqib Mahmood, said that at around 5 pm, some workers started protesting inside the factory, accusing Deepu of hurting religious sentiments. Deepu’s brother Apu Chandra Das told that Deepu was already having disputes with many colleagues. These disputes were about working conditions, targets and benefits for workers.
On 18 December 2025, the dispute escalated and the floor in-charge of the factory forced Dipu to resign. After this he was taken out of the factory and handed over to the mob. Apu got a call from Deepu’s friend Himel that Deepu was being taken to the police station, but after some time it was learned that he had died. When Apu reached the spot, the dead body was found burnt.
