What this record is
This record holds people who were injured during the uprising of July and August 2024 and survived: who each person is, what happened to them, when and where, what has followed in their own public account, where accountability for the injury stands, and what remains unresolved.
It begins with people, not injuries. Each entry opens with who the person is; an injury is stated once, in plain words, only as far as the record needs. No one is ranked, and nothing here measures how badly anyone was hurt.
It is open, and far from complete. Thousands of protesters were seriously injured, the UN fact-finding report found; the record holds the people the archive has so far been able to document to its standard, and grows as records are read. [1]
- This record documents an injury and what followed; the Heroes registers document a contribution. Being injured is not, by itself, a judgment about anyone’s part in July. A person appears in both only when each standard is met on its own, and the entries link to each other rather than repeat.
- The Martyrs register records deaths. A person who later died of injuries from July belongs there; an entry here would say so in one line and point to it, so that no one is recorded as living on one page and dead on another.
The human cost beyond death
July’s cost is not measured by the dead alone. Alongside hundreds of killings, the UN fact-finding report found serious injuries to thousands of protesters, and that most of those killed were shot with military rifles or with shotguns loaded with metal pellets. [1]
The categories the government set for supporting the injured, revised in February 2025, describe what lasting injury means in practice: the loss of an eye, a hand or a leg; blindness; brain injury; being unable to live or work independently; and, for those expected to recover, hospital treatment before they can work again. [2]
Care itself was contested. Doctors and other medical staff treated wounded protesters at great personal risk, the UN report found, while some hospitals were pressured not to admit them. [1]
The entries below record what this has meant for particular people, in their own public accounts: months in hospital, repeated operations, treatment abroad, the loss of an eye or a limb. One person’s experience is never taken to stand for everyone’s.
How a survivor is recorded
A person is given an entry only when the record can answer each of these questions. Until it can, they are listed under Not yet in the record.
- Is the person identified by name in at least two independent publications, or in the record of a court?
- Is the injury itself documented, with its date?
- Do the sources connect it to the protests or the crackdown of July and August 2024?
- Is the place known at least to the district?
- Is it known who says how the person was injured — and is every differing account kept?
- Was the person an adult at the time, and can the record be published without exposing a family member, an address or a private medical record?
- the title “July warrior” or a place on an official list alone — recognition is recorded, but it is not evidence of what happened to a person
- how badly someone was hurt — the record is not a ranking of injury
- fame, political affiliation, or how widely a story was shared
- a social-media post or fundraising appeal with no publication behind it
The record
Ordered by the date of injury, then alphabetically. No entry is set above another.
This record describes people who were shot or otherwise injured during the protests of July and August 2024. It contains no images, and states injuries only as far as the record requires.
Abdullah Al Imran
আবদুল্লাহ আল ইমরান [3]
26 or 27 July 2024
While he was being treated at the National Institute of Traumatology and Orthopaedic Rehabilitation (NITOR) in Dhaka, the prime minister visited the ward. He testified that he heard her tell the hospital’s help desk “No treatment, no release”, and that afterwards his surgery was delayed, medicine could not be brought in from outside and his father could not take him out of the hospital. [6, 4, 7]
Alleged — an allegation by his testimony before International Crimes Tribunal-1 on 4 August 2025, on which the defence cross-examined him; the sources read do not say whether the tribunal made a finding on it; it has not been established. Sources: Prothom Alo; The Business Standard; Dhaka Tribune.
He told the tribunal in August 2025 that his care improved after 5 August, when he was moved to a cabin, and that he had since had 25 operations on the leg, which he could not move. [7]
In January 2026, citing a social-media post by a Chhatra Dal leader, The Daily Campus reported that he was still in hospital seventeen months after he was shot, and that treatment in Thailand under government arrangement had not brought the hoped-for result. [5]
‘আমি বলি, পুলিশ আমাকে সরাসরি গুলি করে। পুলিশের পোশাকে কারা ছিল, সেটা আমি জানি না।’ [3]
“I said yes, they had fired directly at me, though I didn’t know who the people in the police uniform were.” [6]
— Abdullah Al Imran, . Testifying before International Crimes Tribunal-1, on his answer when the prime minister asked whether the police had shot him. In English as published by Prothom Alo’s English edition, reporting the same hearing. No case on record — as of
No case or investigation over his shooting is reported in the sources read.
Testified on as the second prosecution witness in The case against Sheikh Hasina and two others [6, 4].
Who fired at him has not been established, and no court in the sources read has decided whether the instruction he described was given.
Atikul Gazi
Also spelled RJ Atikul Gazi
- Worked as a salesman at a shopping complex in Uttara, Dhaka, and joined the protests there from 18 July 2024, he told The Business Standard. [8]
- Uttara, Dhaka
Police in Uttara were still firing on protesters when he was shot, he told The Business Standard: “I begged them not to shoot us. I told them our fight wasn’t with you. But they didn’t listen.” [8]
Alleged — an allegation by his own account to The Business Standard; no investigation of the shooting is reported; it has not been established. Sources: The Business Standard.
“I want people to remember us. That they don’t forget who we are and what we did.” [8]
— Atikul Gazi, . Speaking to The Business Standard two months after he was injured. In English, as published by The Business Standard. No case on record — as of
No case or investigation over his shooting is reported in the sources read.
Who fired at him is not established; the only account of the shooting in the sources read is his own.
Shot in the face in front of Jatrabari police station at around midday, as protesters marching from Signboard towards central Dhaka came under fire. He lost his left eye. [12, 11, 10]
Reported — published by the reports cited; not yet checked against a primary record. Sources: The Business Standard; bdnews24.com; New Age.
- Khokon Chandra Barman, testifying on 3 August 2025
- Police withdrew into Jatrabari police station when the army arrived; after the army left, police came out and fired on protesters sheltering under the flyover, and an officer fired at him where he had taken cover. [11, 10]
- Defence counsel for Sheikh Hasina and Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, cross-examining
- Said that police did not fire on protesters and that demonstrators were injured or killed by their own weapons, and pointed to differences between his statement in court and his earlier statement to investigators. He answered that this was not true. [11, 10]
He was treated at several hospitals in Dhaka, for the longest period at the National Institute of Burn and Plastic Surgery, he told the tribunal. [11, 10]
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare sent him to the M.V. Lomonosov University Clinic in Moscow on 21 February 2025 for reconstructive treatment. [12, 11] No other hospital had agreed to treat him, The Business Standard reported. [12] The first phase of surgery took place there on 22 April 2025. [13]
In August 2025 he told the tribunal that his treatment was continuing, that further treatment was not available in Bangladesh, and that he had not fully recovered. [11]
“I am proud that my sacrifice helped bring down a regime built on discrimination.” [9]
— Khokon Chandra Barman, . Speaking to Al Jazeera a year after the uprising. In English, as published by Al Jazeera. No case on record — as of
No case or investigation over his own shooting is reported in the sources read. The case he testified in concerns the crackdown as a whole. [11]
Testified on as the first prosecution witness in The case against Sheikh Hasina and two others [11, 10].
No court has decided who fired the shot that injured him; at the tribunal the defence disputed that police fired at all. [11]
Lives and places
What the people in the record were doing in their lives, and where they were injured. All 3 people in the record so far were injured in Dhaka. People were injured across Bangladesh; the gap shows where research is needed.
- StudentsStudents of a university or college at the time, as the sources describe them.
- Working peoplePeople who were in work at the time, as the sources describe them.
Places are given at the level of a district or city, or a public landmark, never an address. People injured in Chattogram and Narayanganj are listed under Not yet in the record. No map is drawn until the record holds enough entries to plot without guesswork.
Testimony in court
Some survivors have given evidence before the International Crimes Tribunal. The case below concerns the crackdown as a whole; its judgment is not a finding about who injured any one witness.
The case against Sheikh Hasina and two others
Convicted at first instance — as of · International Crimes Tribunal-1, Dhaka
- International Crimes Tribunal-1, Dhaka: a three-member tribunal headed by Justice Golam Mortuza Mozumder. [14]
- Crimes against humanity in the government’s crackdown on the protests of July and August 2024. [15]
- On 15 December 2025 the prosecution appealed to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, seeking to raise the sentences of imprisonment until natural death imposed on Sheikh Hasina and Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal to death. [14] No judgment on the appeal is recorded in this archive.
A judgment at first instance can be changed on appeal; an appeal whose outcome is not in the sources read is stated as not on record. The legal status of each person tried is recorded on Crimes & Accountability.
Where accountability stands
For each person in the record, the stage reached by any case over their injury, with the date of the latest source, and the case they testified in. A status describes a proceeding, never a finding about a person.

Treatment, support and rehabilitation
What the state announced for the injured, and what it later reported providing, each dated by its source. An announcement is not a payment, and an official figure is the government’s own account.
Announced
The health ministry had registered about 13,848 people injured in the uprising and revised the three categories in which they would be supported. The Liberation War Affairs adviser said the injured would receive identity cards, lifelong allowances and medical benefits: a one-time Tk5 lakh and Tk20,000 a month in Category A, Tk3 lakh and Tk15,000 a month in Category B, and in Category C priority in rehabilitation and employment but no direct payment. [2]
Reported as delivered
Had sent 38 injured people to Singapore and Thailand for treatment; three had returned home. [12]
Official statement
Published a gazette recognising 493 critically injured people as “July Warriors” in Category A. [16]
Official statement
Said that 13,344 of the 14,369 gazetted July warriors were receiving a monthly allowance in their bank accounts — Tk20,000, Tk15,000 or Tk10,000 by category — and that the rest were being brought in; that injured July warriors were treated free at government hospitals; that 152 had been sent to Thailand, Singapore, Turkey and Russia for treatment, of whom 102 had returned; and that 1,937 people from among the July warriors and the families of the dead had been referred for training and rehabilitation support. [17]
Concerns the injured have raised
Injured people at NITOR in Dhaka, and members of a Students Against Discrimination committee who visited them, said that patients were being refused readmission after going home and were not receiving proper care. The committee’s president said the hospital’s director told them he was helpless, and called for those in critical condition to be sent abroad. [18]
Alleged — an allegation by injured patients and the committee, as reported by The Business Standard; the hospital gave no explanation in the report; it has not been established. Sources: The Business Standard.
What individual people have said about their own treatment and support is recorded in their entries, attributed to them. One person’s experience is not taken to stand for everyone’s.
Counting the injured
There is no single agreed number. Each published figure is set out with who produced it, what it counts, over what period and how. The size of this record is not a count of the injured.
| Figure | Produced by | What it counts | Period | As of | How |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 841 deaths; 12,272 injuries | Ministry of Health, as cited by OHCHR | Deaths related to the protests (10 of them women) and injuries recorded by the health authorities | The protests | When the OHCHR report was finalised | Hospital records. OHCHR considers them incomplete: staff were overwhelmed, some patients gave no or false names to avoid arrest, families buried some of the dead quickly, and in some cases health authorities were intimidated into not registering deaths. [1] |
| About 13,848 people | Ministry of Health, as reported by Dhaka Tribune | People injured in the uprising whom the ministry registered for treatment and support | July–August 2024 | Reported 17 February 2025 | A registration list for assistance, divided into three categories. It records people who were registered, not everyone who was injured. [2] |
| 493 people | Ministry of Liberation War Affairs | Critically injured people recognised as “July Warriors” in “Category A” | July–August 2024 | Gazette reported on 28 February 2025 | An official gazette of recognition, not a count of all who were injured. [16] |
| 14,369 people | Ministry of Liberation War Affairs, as stated in parliament | Gazetted “July warriors”: people injured in the uprising or who took part in it, as the minister’s answer is reported | July–August 2024 | 18 June 2026 | An official list of recognition and entitlement. Its scope as reported includes people who took part as well as the injured, so it is not a count of injuries. [17] |
| 44 police officers killed | Bangladesh Police, BGB, Ansar/VDP and RAB, as cited by OHCHR | Members of the security forces, each force’s own figure: police 44 killed and 2,308 injured; BGB 3 killed and 129 injured; Ansar/VDP 3 and 63; RAB 2 and 307 | 1 July – 15 August 2024 | Provided to OHCHR before February 2025 | Each force’s own figures for its members. [1] |

- Members of the security forces, each force’s own figure: police 44 killed and 2,308 injured; BGB 3 killed and 129 injured; Ansar/VDP 3 and 63; RAB 2 and 307
- 1 July – 15 August 2024
- Provided to OHCHR before February 2025
- Each force’s own figures for its members. [1]
The archive’s position
- None. A hospital count, a registration list for assistance and a gazette of recognition count different things; none is a count of everyone who was injured.
- Hospital records are incomplete: staff were overwhelmed and some patients gave no or false names to avoid arrest, the UN report notes. Official lists record the people who registered and were recognised. [1]
- A published, reconciled count of the injured with its method, from an official or independent body. When one is found it will be added here, with its date.
Where the records differ
Sources disagree on some details — where, when, what an injury has left, what support provides. The record does not choose silently: each account is set out with who gave it.
What the record does: The entry gives Jatrabari, Dhaka, as every report of his testimony does. He told the tribunal that he joined the march at Signboard, which bdnews24.com places in Narayanganj, before it reached Jatrabari; the archive has not established whether that explains the difference.
- The Business Standard, February and May 2025
- Sent on 21 February 2025; returned on 7 May, after the first phase of surgery on 22 April. [12, 13]
- bdnews24.com, reporting his testimony
- Sent on 21 February; returned on 7 April. [11]
- New Age, reporting his testimony
- Flown to Russia on 21 January 2025; returned on 7 April. [10]
What the record does: The entry gives the departure date that two reports agree on and the date of the first surgery, and no date of return.
What the record does: The entry gives his own words. It does not say that the leg was amputated, which his testimony as reported does not state.
What the record does: Both are dated and kept: the terms appear to have changed between them. The later statement is the most recent on record; the archive has not checked it against payments.
Not yet in the record
People and groups named in published reports who do not yet have an entry. They are part of this history; what is missing is stated, not hidden.
- Shuvo Mahmud
A student of the Bangla department at Chittagong University who lost the sight of his right eye after he was shot at Muradpur, Chattogram, on the afternoon of 16 July 2024, according to BSS. [19]
Missing: A second independent publication: BSS is the only report the archive has read.
- Abu Hanif
A madrasa student who lost the sight of his right eye after he was hit by a rubber bullet at Chashara, Narayanganj, on 5 August 2024, according to Dhaka Tribune. [20]
Missing: A second independent publication: Dhaka Tribune is the only report read.
- Sinthia Mehrin Sokal
A final-year criminology student at the University of Dhaka who was hit on the head during the protest on 15 July 2024, by an activist of the Chhatra League, the Awami League’s student wing, according to Al Jazeera. [9]
Missing: A second independent publication: Al Jazeera is the only report read.
- Parveen
A day labourer who gave evidence before International Crimes Tribunal-1 on 4 August 2025 and who lost an eye, according to The Business Standard; [21] Dhaka Tribune reports that she lost her eyesight. [22]
Missing: Her full name, and when and where she was injured: the reports read give one name and no detail of the incident.
- Other witnesses at the tribunal
Later witnesses in the same case included injured protesters, The Business Standard reports; Dhaka Tribune lists among the witnesses of 17 August 2025 a vegetable vendor, Abdus Samad, and a student, Nayeem Shikder. [21, 22]
Missing: A report of what happened to each: the reports read list them as witnesses without describing their injuries.
- Children
Children were among the injured: on 5 August alone, the UN investigators found several young children among those killed and wounded. [1]
Missing: Nothing that the record will add: children are not named here. Their injuries are part of this history and of the counts.
- Members of the security forces
The police reported 2,308 of their members injured between 1 July and 15 August 2024, and the other forces their own figures. [1]
Missing: Named records the archive has read. Their injuries are connected to July and will be recorded to the same standard as every other.
Elsewhere in the archive
Many who were shot in July did not survive. Their names and records are kept in the memorial register.
July Martyrs
- Crimes & Accountability
Investigations, trials and judgments over July, with each person’s legal status in each case, dated and sourced.
- Unresolved Justice
Injuries and deaths whose responsibility is not established, and proceedings still open.
- July Heroes
People whose documented part in July is widely recognised. An injury alone does not place anyone there.
- Unsung Heroes
People whose part was substantial but less visible: journalists, lawyers and others.
Sources and method
Each entry was compiled by Justice for Hadi from news reports and the reports of tribunal hearings, each read in full, and from the UN fact-finding report. Every numbered citation points to the publication that reports the fact. What a witness told the tribunal is cited to the reports of the hearing: the archive holds no transcript, so it is marked “Reported” or, where it is a claim about another person, “Alleged”, never “Court record”.
Every claim carries the project’s evidence word in text. “Reported” means published by the sources cited and not yet checked against a primary record. “Alleged” means a claim made by someone — the person, a witness, the defence — that has not been established, and names who made it. None of these records has yet been through the project’s formal verification process.
July archive reviewed through . A wrong name, date, place, description of an injury, photograph or status is serious. To correct a record, ask for one to be removed, or propose a person with sources, see corrections; meaningful corrections are noted, not silently overwritten. For how the project works, see the research methodology.
How accountability is described
- No case on record
- No case, complaint or investigation over the injury is reported in the sources read. It does not mean none exists.
- Case filed
- A complaint or case over the injury has been lodged with the police, a court or the tribunal’s prosecution; no charges are on record.
- Formal charges submitted
- The prosecution has put formal charges to a court; the court has not yet tried them.
- Trial ongoing
- A court has framed charges and is hearing the case.
- Convicted at first instance
- A trial court has given judgment. Appeals may follow; until a final decision, it is not the last word.
- Acquitted
- A court has found the accused not guilty.
- Unresolved
- The record does not show where accountability stands.
How support is described
- Announced
- A decision or promise, as reported when it was made. It does not show that anything was paid or provided.
- Reported as delivered
- A report that support was provided, as the source states it. The archive has not checked it against records of payment or treatment.
- Official statement
- A figure an official gave, as reported. It is the government’s own account, not an independent count.

What is not on this page, and why
- An open record
- The record does not claim to be complete, and its size says nothing about how many were injured: the published counts are set out under Counting the injured, and none is adopted.
- Medical privacy
- Injuries are stated once, in plain words, as far as the record needs. No diagnoses, medical records, hospital registration numbers, prescriptions, scans or private treatment notes are published. Hospitals and treatment abroad are named only where the person told it in public or a report published it.
- No ranking of injury
- The record is ordered by date of injury, then name. It has no severity labels, no injury types as filters and no measure of how badly anyone was hurt. The government’s categories are described only as the terms of its support.
- Mental health
- Psychological consequences are recorded only where the person has made them public and they are material to the record. None is recorded here.
- Children
- No child is named. People who were children when they were injured are part of this history and of the counts; they are not profiled, and no school, family or image of a child is published.
- Families and homes
- Family members are not named or quoted, even where the sources do. No home addresses, present whereabouts, telephone numbers, identity documents or financial circumstances are published.
- Who caused an injury
- Who fired is stated as who said it — the person, a witness, the defence — with the accounts side by side where they differ. People accused or convicted are named only as parties to a proceeding, with its stage and date. A judgment in a case a survivor testified in is not a finding about who injured them.
- Testimony and translation
- Words are quoted as the cited source prints them, with the date and the setting. English is the publication’s own; a Bangla original is given only where a Bangla source prints it, set in Bangla, beside the English it corresponds to.
- No photographs
- The archive does not hold a photograph of anyone in this record with a documented creator and permission to publish. None is shown, no placeholder is drawn in its place, and no illustration, AI-generated likeness or image of an injury, hospital bed or operation is used.
- No search or filters yet
- While the record is small it is read in order. When it is large enough to need them, filters will offer date, place, occupation and accountability — never injury type or severity.
- Sources not used
- Reports that could not be read in full on the review date, encyclopedia entries, trial-monitoring indexes and social-media posts were used only as leads. A social-media post is cited only as a publication reported it.
