Video footage reveals that police shot Abu Sayed, a Begum Rokeya University student, during a quota reform protest near the campus on July 16, despite him posing no physical threat. Sayed died shortly after the incident. However, the police's First Information Report (FIR) contradicts the footage, claiming Sayed was not a victim of police gunfire. According to the FIR, protesters fired weapons and hurled bricks from various directions, and at one point, a student was observed falling to the ground.
