Abdur Rashid, a day labourer from Dinajpur, was shot by law enforcers on August 4. Shotgun pellets struck him when police opened fire on anti-government protesters, leaving him incapacitated and in urgent need of medical care. With no steady income and mounting treatment costs, Rashid’s family was driven to make an unimaginable decision -- to sell their newborn daughter.
The payment collected in exchange for the child was returned to the adoptive family
An infant has been sold for Tk 37,000 to pay the hospital bills of the father, who was shot and injured during the student-led mass uprising, according to the mother
