Family members of BNP supporters started gathering at Jatiya Press Club in Dhaka since 9:00am today to join a human chain programme marking International Human Rights Day.
The demonstration, which is scheduled to begin at 11:00am, has been organised by BNP to draw attention to the alleged human rights violations against the party members.
Participants were seen chanting slogans in front of the Jatiya Press Club on the occasion. Meanwhile, a large number of law enforcement personnel have been deployed in the press club area.
