In 1974 Ahmad lost his cabinet post . When Mujib assumed the title of President and banned other political parties in 1975 , Ahmad became the odd man out , declining and opposing the formation of a one-party system known as BAKSAL . When Mujib was assassinated by a group of army officers on 15 August 1975 , Ahmad was immediately placed under house arrest . On 22 August , he was arrested with other political leaders by the regime of the new president Khondaker Mostaq Ahmed and imprisoned at the Dhaka Central Jail . On 3 November , in what became infamously known as the " Jail Killing Day " , Ahmad along with Syed Nazrul Islam , A. H. M. Qamaruzzaman and Muhammad Mansur Ali were killed inside the jail by a group of army officers on the instruction of President Khondaker Mostaq Ahmed
