Death

[edit]

Between 1:45 PM and 2:20 PM on 18 July, the police APCT was stationed near the old overbridge of Savar bus stand.[11] At that time, Yameen, among the protestors from the opposite side of the highway, climbed over APCT in a gap, first on the service lane, then on the high divider of the main road, and finally on top of the middle iron road divider. Immediately after climbing the APC, he fell down on the roof of the APC after being shot in the left side of the chest.[3] After reaching the area between Savar's Rana Plaza and the VAT office, a policeman[12] from inside the APC opened a door, and another hatched and climbed up and dropped Yamin on the road, which was very cruel and inhumane.[13]
