Jubo Mohila League Leader Sharmin Detained in Mob Raid at Home, Concern Grows Over Her Child with Disability

Staff Correspondent

It has been alleged that Sharmin Sultana Sharmi, the former organizing secretary of the Jubo Mahila League, was arrested by a mob from her own home.

Her family says Sharmin has two young children, one of whom has special needs. The child recently underwent surgery. The arrest of the mother has raised concerns about the care of the children.

Sharmin Sultana Sharmi is the wife of renowned reciter, presenter, and actor and Bangla Academy Director Dr. Shahadat Hossain Nipu.

Sharmin’s relatives, colleagues and political acquaintances have expressed their anger on social media over her arrest from her home. They claim that the family does not have enough people to take care of their two young children in her absence.

According to close family members, especially children who have undergone surgery need regular care and attention. In such a situation, there is concern that arresting the children’s mother could have a negative impact on their physical and mental health.

Meanwhile, detailed information about the charges or cases behind Sharmin Sultana’s arrest is not known. The statement of the relevant law enforcement agencies is also needed on the charges and cases under which she was arrested.

Sharmin’s relatives and acquaintances have questioned whether humanitarian considerations were taken into account during her arrest as a mother of two children in critical care. They have also raised questions about whether she has the option of bail or any alternative legal measures, especially considering the care of her recently-operated child.

The family has demanded Sharmin’s release and the safety and necessary care of the two children.
