During the rally, the speakers questioned the interim government, asking how a fascist like Lucky Akhter, an ally of Hasina, is still roaming freely.
They stated that in 2013, Lucky and her associates established a culture of impunity, which strengthened Hasina's fascist regime.
The protesters declared that those who attacked the police during anti-rape protests in Dhaka, including Lucky Akhter, must be arrested within the next 24 hours.
They added that Lucky and others like her must be brought to justice so that she cannot flee to India like Hasina.
