AL, BNP both allege attack on activists

Our Correspondent, Patuakhali
At least 102 men of the ruling Awami League (AL) have been sued for alleged attack on a BNP meeting that was arranged to mark the death anniversary of former president Ziaur Rahman, also founder of BNP, at Rangabali upazila headquarters on May 30.
Abdur Rahman Farazee, secretary of Rangabali upazila unit of BNP, filed the case with the Court of Executive Magistrate Md Nuruzzaman in Galachipa yesterday and the magistrate asked the OC of Rangabali police station to receive the case as an FIR (First Information Report) and take lawful action after proper investigation.
"BNP organised a discussion and milad mahfil marking the 31st death anniversary of Ziaur Rahman, at SCI square at about 10:00am on May 30. But just after its start, about 200 people led by Ahsan Kair Chan, president of upazila Awami League, attacked the venue and foiled the programme," goes the case statement.
On the other hand, AL men claimed that when their procession, marking 'victory over the sea', was crossing the meeting spot BNP men attacked them.
Earlier on Friday night, Abul Kalam Azad, vice president of upazila AL, filed a case with Rangabali police station accusing 113 people (73 identified and
the rest unnamed) of BNP and its associate bodies, including Kabir Talukder, president of Rangabali upazila BNP, in this regard.
A large number of activists of BNP and its associate bodies in Rangabali went into hiding to evade harassment by police and political rivals as the case was filed against 113 BNP men accusing them of involvement in the alleged attack on AL procession.
AL men locked at least 50 shops and business establishments belonging to BNP adherents at different places of the upazila and continued searching for BNP men to hand them over to the police, said Kabir Talukder, secretary of Rangabali upazila BNP.
AL cadres caught Jubo Dal activist Rasel, 20, beat him up and handed him over to police on Saturday, he said.
"Awami League men foiled our peaceful meeting on May 30 at ASC Square in Rangabali upazila headquarters and then filed a false case to harass us. They are also extorting BNP men in the area," Kabir said.
On the other hand, Ahsan Kabir Chan, president of Rangabali upazila AL, said their party activists are not involved in harassment of BNP men.
"BNP men attacked our party procession when it was crossing ASC Square. We filed a case and police will take lawful action," he added.
