Like in other parts of the country, members of Jamaat-e-Islami’s student wing, Chhatra Shibir, along with student-protesters of so-called anti-discrimination movements with extremist ideologies, have carried out vandalism and arson at the house of former President of Bangladesh, Abdul Hamid, as well as the district Awami League office in Kishoreganj.
On Thursday (February 6) at around 8 PM, activists of Jamaat-e-Islami’s student wing, Chhatra Shibir, with extremist ideologies, first demolished the Awami League office in the Kharpatty area of Kishoreganj town using an excavator.
Later, they broke the lock of a multi-story building belonging to Syed Ashraful Islam Tito, the district Awami League’s joint general secretary, and ransacked the house.
Following this, BNP-Jamaat-e-Islami’s student activists, with extremist ideologies, vandalized the gate and doors of former President Abdul Hamid’s house in the same area and set fire to a motorcycle.
Additionally, in the evening, local BNP activists demolished the ‘Chotona-71’ sculpture, featuring murals of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib and the four national leaders, using a bulldozer at the Binnati intersection on the Kishoreganj-Bhairab regional highway.
