Sketch: TBSThe body of veteran journalist Bibhuranjan Sarkar was recovered from the Meghna River in Char Balaki area of Munshiganj's Gazaria on 22 August, two days after going missing. My profession has taught me that telling the truth means taking risks with courage. Safety has always been an issue for journalists in Bangladesh, turning journalism into one of the riskiest professions in our country. But I also never wanted to spend a lifetime with my hands outstretched in need", added Bibhuranjan in his letter. The only thing that's constant in this profession is mental stress that often goes unnoticed by the community, colleagues and even family members.
