A tragic stampede during a Jashn-e-Julius procession, organized to celebrate the holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi (PBUH), claimed the lives of two people and injured at least six others in Chattogram city. The incident occurred around 12 PM on Saturday in the Muradpur area of the city. Among the injured, one person is in critical condition.
The deceased have been identified as Aiyub Ali (60), a resident of Patiya Upazila in Chattogram, and Saiful Islam (13), from the Kalamia Bazar area of the city. They were rushed to Chattogram Medical College Hospital, where doctors declared them dead.
Sohel Rana, Assistant In-Charge of the Chattogram Medical College Police Outpost, confirmed the deaths and stated that one of the injured is currently under intensive care.
Members of the Anjuman-e-Rahmania Trust’s medical team transported the victims to the hospital. Aminur Rahman, a member of the team, told Prothom Alo, “Due to the intense heat and the large crowd, several people fell ill and collapsed. They were trampled in the chaos. We rescued eight people in critical condition and brought them to the hospital, but two of them succumbed to their injuries.”
