Abstract

Those of us who farewelled Hadi with tears in our eyes experienced a double burden of sadness: we are saddened by the loss of Hadi and by the criminality of attackers of media houses, including The Daily Star building in Dhaka early on December 19, 2025. The attacks were an affront on the very hallmark of Hadi's legacy and had the potential to shift attention from the tragedy of murder to atrocities against free media. Perpetrators offered Bangladesh's adversaries an opportunity to paint a negative picture of the country and tarnish the image of Hadi and other July 2024 warriors.
