Blinded by Injustice: The 15-Year Saga of Abdus Shukur
Abdus Shukur, a 55-year-old man, faced a heart-wrenching tragedy when he lost his eyesight in a local dispute 15 years ago. Kidnapped and blinded, he navigated through life’s challenges with the unwavering support of his devoted wife, Rosna Begum. Their family, including two daughters and a son, faced the harsh realities of life. The heavy storm that damaged their home left them in dire straits, living in a makeshift shelter crafted from broken tins. Abdus Shukur’s inability to work due to his visual impairment forced the family to rely on begging for sustenance, making each day a struggle for survival.
Shattered Walls and Broken Dreams
The housing conditions for the Shukur family were dire. The storm’s aftermath left their home in ruins, and the lack of financial resources made rebuilding an impossible dream. Living in a makeshift shelter, the family faced the harsh elements daily. Mr. Abdus Shukur, along with his wife, resorted to begging to put food on the table, trying to provide a semblance of normalcy for their children amidst the wreckage of their life.
