The Daily Star on March 23 published a front-page story titled “His fight takes new turn.” The story depicts the struggle of Limon Hossain, a RAB shootout victim, who is now a lawyer.

Limon has not only fought back false cases against him but also worked hard to become a lawyer despite having lost a leg in the shootout.

The credit also goes to the media and human rights organisations that helped him enormously. Limon's is the best example of how resilience and determination can make men defy all odds. As a human rights lawyer, his fight for helpless people would be a befitting response to those who violate human rights by misusing power.
