The Rayer Bazar Graveyard, located right behind the Martyred Intellectuals Memorial, is not just any graveyard. During the coronavirus pandemic, its eighth sector was dedicated for burying coronavirus patients. But these days, it has become a hub for hanging out, recording social media content and the occasional drug dealing, according to locals. This not only compromises the graveyard’s environment, but is also a public health risk. This photo was taken yesterday. Photo: Rashed Shumon
