The 47th death anniversary of martyred Sergeant Zahurul Haque will be observed today with due solemnity, said a press release.
Liberation War Museum and family members of Sergeant Zahurul Haque will jointly organise a drawing contest at the museum premises marking the day.
Sergeant Zahurul Haque was shot dead by the Pakistani army on this day in 1969 when he was in prison at the Dhaka Cantonment in the so-called Agartala Conspiracy Case.
His killing intensified the agitation for the release of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and the anti-Ayub movement.
