Titon, with a bullet-scarred body, cannot forget the horrific days of July-August
Staff Reporter, from Sylhet //
Titon’s body is scarred by the bullets of the dictatorial Awami Police League in the July-August student-public mass movement. However, Titon Mallick, the joint convener of Sylhet District Volunteer Party, did not retreat for fear of his life. Although he was born in Sanatan Dharma, he was at the forefront of the movement. That dark chapter of his life came on July 19. Even though he fought on the streets after overcoming the fear of bullets, the traditional marks of those bullets have not been erased from his body. There are countless bullets embedded in his body. The familiar sound of those bullets still haunts him. Even though he had previously attended meetings and gatherings in different parts of the country for the party, he could not forget the horrific days of July-August.
It has been learned that Titon Mallick has been living with his family in the Tilagarh (Gopaltila) area of Sylhet metropolis. He has devoted himself to the movement struggle for almost 16 years, loving BNP. During the Awami regime, nothing could keep him down, including imprisonment, oppression, and torture. He was deeply involved in BNP politics since his student days. But his crime was to do politics for a BNP party. Now he is destitute because he loved that party.
The inhuman torture and lawsuits of the Awami League have taken away his youthful life. He has gained a reputation as a lowly person among his family members. He has lost his house and business. He has had to sacrifice all his desires. Numerous lawsuits and disgrace have ruined his life. He has had to abandon his family and life. He has lost his brothers and friends. Finally, as a lost traveler, inspired by the ideals of Shaheed President Ziaur Rahman, the founder of the nationalist party BNP, the promoter of multi-party democracy, the shepherd king of Bengal, he risked his life for the welfare of the country and jumped into the mass movement of the students and the public. At that time, he thought that he might not return home from that Rajpath movement. But despite being shot by a cruel irony of fate, he survived this journey for some invisible reason. Sunrise began a new day for him.
When Titon Mallick was talked to on his mobile phone to find out about this, he told The Daily Morning Sun in a tearful voice, I died long ago. I am now destitute due to the Awami misrule. My crime is that I am a soldier of Zia. At that time, he expressed his anger and said, “Even if I die in a lowly manner, there would be no sorrow, if the indiscriminate shooting of countless innocent students had not taken place.” He asked, “They are students, they are innocent, what was the crime of those students that they were shot in the chest?” At that time, he prayed for the peace of the souls of all those who lost their lives in the mass movement to establish democracy and build a country free from dictators and expressed deep condolences to the injured. He said, “I pray to God that we do not have to see any more such massacres in the near future.”
