The residence of education minister Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury in Chattogram came under attack, and two vehicles parked in front of the house were vandalised and one torched during the attack.
This is the house where Mohibul’s father and former mayor of Chattogram, ABM Mohiuddin Chowdhury, used to live.
The incident took place at 6:30 p.m. at Chattogram’s Chasma Hill on Saturday. The attack was allegedly carried out during the procession of Students Against Discrimination.
Mohibul was not in the house during the incident, but other members of the family were inside.
Earlier, the office of Chattogram-10 constituency’s member of parliament, Md. Mohiuddin, at Lalkhan Bazar also came under attack around 5:30 p.m.
The office was torched, while police boxes at New Market, Tiger Pass, and the GEC intersection were torched.
However, Student Against Discrimination’s co-coordinator, Khan Talat Mahmud, denied the allegation of the attack.
