The clash in the New Market area began around 11:30pm on April 18 following an argument between staffers of two fast food shops. It ended around 3:45am the next day after hours of massive police intervention that left a student badly injured.  

Detectives today said that they would soon be able to share information on arrest of suspects in Nahid murder case. Nahid Mia was beaten up and hacked during clashes between Dhaka College students and shopkeepers in New Market area on April 19.

The government will provide no supplement to the media houses who are yet to implement the 8th Wage Board, Information Minister Hasan Mahmud said today.

We have become so heartless that we can now watch video of Nahid Mia getting beaten to death – without any hesitation. Once, we identify the "Helmet Gang" as killers, we reach the decision that nothing will happen to them.

Police have identified some students of Dhaka College for their alleged involvement with the murder of Nahid Mia, who was killed during the students-traders clashes in New Market area on April 19.
