Mofizur Rahman Ashiq, a former joint secretary of the Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal central committee and a bright student from the English department at Dhaka University, has endured two disappearances in 2013 and 2022 under the Awami government's regime.

He is currently experiencing severe spinal pain, and his health is worsening each day. Nevertheless, he is actively engaging with the community in Bashkhali, Chittagong-16, to raise awareness about the implementation of Tarique Rahman's 31-point plan aimed at reforming the state structure. His efforts have already sparked significant interest in Bashkhali as he enters the electoral arena, persistently campaigning for the 31-point agenda and the paddy sheaf symbol.

This has revitalized local leaders and activists. Meanwhile, Mofizur Rahman Ashiq, who previously served as the joint general secretary of the central parliament of Chhatra Dal and has also been a victim of two abductions, is being considered as a potential BNP candidate for the upcoming 13th national parliament election in Chittagong-16 (Bashkhali).

It has come to light that during the 2013 movement advocating for national elections under a caretaker government, he was deeply involved in organizing various anti-dictatorship initiatives at the Dhaka University campus, Naya Paltan, Mirpur in Dhaka, and Sitakunda in Chittagong. On December 5, 2013, he was forcibly taken by the government's special forces from Mirpur in the capital.

He was then held in an undisclosed location for two months, during which he was blindfolded, handcuffed, subjected to electric shocks, and endured severe inhumane treatment. During this time, he suffered beatings that resulted in torn ligaments in his right hand and a broken waist. Despite these injuries, he continues to participate in various BNP events, even under precarious circumstances.

Additionally, on the night of October 14, 2022, the CTTC abducted him for a second time due to his provision of documentary and video evidence regarding the militant drama orchestrated by the CTTC to several media outlets, including both local and international press, Human Rights Watch, the US Embassy, and the US State Department.
