Ban Awami League within 48 hours: Warriors of July 

"Warriors of July", a forum formed by the families of the martyrs and injured victims of the July 2024 mass uprising, have issued a 48-hour ultimatum to the interim government today to ban the Awami League as a political party.

During a demonstration in front of the Raju Memorial Sculpture in the Dhaka University campus, the protesters warned of a blockade in Dhaka if the Awami League is not banned within the stipulated time.

Sujon, one of the injured victims of the July uprising, said, "[Ousted prime minister Sheikh] Hasina's party has left so many mothers and sisters in mourning over the last 17 years. Through the media, we are announcing that if the Awami League is not banned, we will call for another movement like in 2024. We are not afraid of death. As long as we live, we will not let killer Hasina's Awami League return."

Issuing a warning to the current government not to engage in any new conspiracies Ashraful said, "We will resist all conspiracies. Thousands of injured people are still suffering in hospitals.

Within 48 hours, the protesters said, the office of Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus must make an announcement or come up with a decision on banning the Awami League for its fascist activities.

If no commitment is made within this timeframe, they will continue a sit-in programme at the Central Shaheed Minar until their demand is met.

The protesters also warned that if anyone tries to rehabilitate the Awami League, their position will not remain safe.
