Killing of journo Farhad Khan protested
Journalist leaders yesterday expressed grievance over the silence of the government and administration on the murder of journalist Farhad Khan.
The leaders at a human chain in the city also demanded proper investigation into the murder of Farhad and exemplary punishment to the killers.
Unidentified people murdered Farhad and his wife at their Naya Paltan residence in the city on January 28.
Bangladesh Federal Union of Journalists' (DFUJ) and Dhaka Union of Journalists (DUJ) organised the protest programme in front of the Jatiya Press Club.
They claimed that the journalist community hardly gets justice of crimes against them though they are often assaulted, tortured or killed.
DFUJ President Iqbal Sobhan, DUJ President Shah Alamgir, BFUJ Secretary General Altaf Mahmud, DFUJ former president Manjurul Ahsan Bulbul, former secretary general Abdul Jalil Bhuyian and DUJ General Secretary Abu Jafar Surjo also joined the human chain.
