Advocate Rasel Mahmud Manna, organising secretary of the Lakshmipur district Awami League (AL), confirmed his death to The Business Standard.
“Momin hails from Lakshmipur’s Ramganj and was active in Ramganj AL politics. On 14 August at midnight, he went to Dhanmondi 32 to light candles mourning Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s assassination,” he added.

“Later, he was taken to a private hospital and had been undergoing treatment for the last two weeks,” Rasel added.
