A case was filed on Tuesday against the suspended assistant commissioner of Lalmonirhat Taposhee Tabassum Urmi for making derogatory remarks about Abu Sayed, who was killed in police firing during the quota reform movement on July 16.

Gono Adhikar Parishad’s higher council member Abu Hanif filed the case with the court of Dhaka metropolitan magistrate Md Zakir Hossain.

Upon hearing, the magistrate recorded the statement of the complainant and issued a summon to the defendant to appear in court on November 28, said advocate Khademul Islam, a lawyer for the complainant.

The Chief Adviser’s Office press wing confirmed Urmi’s suspension on Monday, a day after she was made an officer on special duty amid criticism and protests against her for her remarks on the interim government and July movement hero Abu Sayeed.

‘The countdown has begun for you, sir,’ she wrote, addressing chief adviser to the interim government Prof Muhammad Yunus.

She also mentioned Begum Rokeya University and July movement hero Abu Sayeed, who was killed in police firing, as terrorist.

On July 16, BRUR English department student Abu Sayeed, a coordinator of the anti-quota movement, was killed in police firing when the police and Bangladesh Chhatra League launched attacks on student protesters leading to the mass uprising that ousted the authoritarian regime of Sheikh Hasina on August 5.
