Sarafbhata. Murder and vengence.

in Worldmappin2 days ago

Another river crossing, this time a little less precarious than Mongla, arriving just moments too late to get the bus onto this one, it floated away.

Still we would be first to get on it when it returned sometime later, I for one was happy, get amongst the locals and snap away

That famous Egyptian footballer More Salad, who plays for liverpool, a team I hate with a vengeance. Wonder if he is charging for image rights on a poster for a local 6 a side football competition?

A rough translation, though I guess the poster tells a story in itself

"Demand hanging for the killers of Amir Hossain and Julekha Begum
Led by the murderers Kamal and Tofal, they are committing many other crimes including murdering more than 30 people, extortion, torturing women, child trafficking, dealing in yaba and drugs, etc., and under their tyranny, about 300 (three hundred) families of Sarfbhata have been affected.
Members are fleeing to different places. We, the residents of Sarafbhata area, are demanding the arrest of the said murderers and the strictest punishment and execution."

That last picture was insane. I'm glad I've never encountered such a poster before.

Yeah how fucking in your face is that!

The traveler takes a step back and always gets great photos... that last sign speaks loudly about the security there. 😟

yeah, never expected to see anything like that !!!

@grindle I love how you document even the most ordinary moments, like river crossings and boat repairs, and transform them into compelling snapshots of culture and community. Really admire it.

Thank you for your positive vibes @gracefulwrites

The crimes committed by the murderers were very cruel 😢 So sorry for the loss... Praying for peace in your city. Hope that justice will be served right. 🙏

More Salad haha and yeah I can't stand them either!
The police in the UK have no fluffing idea what an overladen vehicle means!

Yup the vermin from the city of pity

Oh apt!

👍
