Of silent streets, empty booths And suspicious activities

International observers inspecting polling centres

Meanwhile at Dhaka Polytechnic Institute, some youths were seen surrounding an election official at 4:20pm, 20 minutes after voting ended. The official was scribbling on pieces of paper. One of them shouted, “everybody out!” as soon as they spotted our photojournalist. PHOTO: FIROZ AHMED, ORCHID CHAKMA, AMRAN HOSSAIN, RASHED SHUMON, FAHD MANNAN
