After the assassination of Bangladesh’s fundamentalist leader Sharif Usman Hadi, his brother has accused a faction of the interim government led by the country’s chief advisor Mohammad Yunus. He said that a faction of the interim government had conspired to assassinate his brother to derail the general elections to be held in the country.
Hours after his claim, Special Assistant to the Chief Advisor (Home Ministry) Mohammad Khuda Bakhsh Chaudhary resigned from his post. Hadi’s brother Omar Hadi said in a protest rally organized by Inquilab Manch in the country’s capital Dhaka on Tuesday (December 23, 2025), “It was you who got Osman Hadi murdered. Now you are trying to thwart the elections by making it an issue. Those who were in power at the time of Osman Hadi’s murder will not be able to escape this responsibility.”
What did Omar Hadi say about the murder of his brother?
Omar said that the government should immediately expose before the country all those involved in his brother’s murder. Referring to the fate of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s Awami League government, he warned that otherwise you too will be forced to flee the country.
Along with the Awami League, Osman Hadi, a staunch critic of India, was one of the leaders of last year’s violent protests. Due to this violent demonstration led by students, the government led by Sheikh Hasina was ousted from power. This demonstration is known as the July Uprising. Hadi later formed Inquilab Manch.
Cabinet department released information
The Cabinet Department issued a notification on Wednesday (December 24, 2025) night saying that the President has accepted the resignation of former police chief Chaudhary. “Special Assistant to the Chief Advisor (Home Ministry) Mohammad Khuda Bakhsh Chaudhary has resigned from his post and the President has accepted his resignation,” an official statement said.
Shot in Dhaka, died during treatment in Singapore
Usman Hadi, a candidate for parliamentary elections to be held in February, was shot in the head by masked gunmen in Dhaka on December 12, 2025. He died six days later in a hospital in Singapore. After this, Umar alleged that a part of the government got his brother murdered at the behest of some agency or the country. He said Hadi wanted national elections to be held by February and had requested officials not to disrupt the election environment.
Inquilab Manch held three responsible for Hadi’s murder
Inquilab Manch has held Home Advisor Lieutenant General (retired) Jahangir Alam Chaudhary, Law Advisor Asif Nazrul and Khuda Baksh Chaudhary responsible for the murder and demanded their immediate resignation. The legal adviser has promised to prosecute the case in Bangladesh’s speedy trial tribunal, under which the trial has to be completed within 90 days.
Following Hadi’s death, a mob went on a rampage in Dhaka and set fire to the main offices of the newspapers Prothom Alo and Daily Star as well as the offices of Chayanat and Udichi Shilpi Gosthi, two progressive cultural groups in Dhaka. A Hindu factory worker was beaten to death by a mob in central Mymensingh.
