Protests against reckless driving in Bangladesh continued on August 2, when students assembled outside campuses in the capital of Dhaka and staged sit-ins on roads.
Protesters outside the University of Dhaka’s science lab chanted “we want justice”, in response to the latest road traffic death in which a bus ploughed into a group of college students and left two dead. Student protesters have developed a nine-point charter, according to local reports, which includes capital punishment for reckless drivers.
A Facebook page called Private University Students Alliance of Bangladesh collated images and videos from demonstrations, which have since spread to other cities in the country. Credit: Adnan Aftab via Storyful
