Altab Ali Life & Family

                                                                         

4th of May 1978


After so many years on, since the murder of Altab Ali in 1978, in Whitechapel, Spitalfields, East London, England, United Kingdom. 


 

His name and face became a Symbol of Defiance, and so much has happened with it but no organisation invested the time and resources to know who this person was.


There was one person that stood out who was still holding up his name was Shamsuddin Shams, he spoke to Altab Ali 30-45 minutes earlier before him was stabbed to death.

                                                

Then I learnt after I started researching about Altab Ali that Sheik Dobir, Altab's room mate was in contact with the family and was looking to see what became of them.  It is through Dobir that I was able to connect with Altab Ali's family.  Dobir also made known to me about Altab's first bosom buddy Ukil Ali; Dobir supplied the contact number for Ukil Ali.


Through both the contacts I was able acquire much of the personal accounts. From the Bangladesh contact with the family, Altab's nephew connected with me and appreciated what I was doing and gave his services to me.  He was instrumental in acquiring the exclusive family and Altab's  personal belongings, and specifically exclusive accounts and information about Altab's widow.


So, this book sheds light to Altab Ali, his life and family.  This books also gives the family the platform to express their appreciation and gratitude to the everyone.
