Md. Isak Bhandari and his family were brutally attacked for raising complaints against yaba traders in Rangamati.

The victim's family held a press conference at 11 am on Saturday at Mollapara, Ward No. 6, Banga Bati in the city on the basis of attacks, threats and false allegations by drug traders.

The victim claims that he recently faced the wrath of drug traders after he protested against their activities. It is alleged that a group of youths led by drug trader Delwar Hossain Shakil (Delu) systematically attacked them.

Immediately after the attack, the victim's family filed a case with the police station. The police arrested the accused Delwar Hossain Shakil the night after the incident. However, the victim's family claims that their safety has been further jeopardized since the arrest of the accused.

Nur Hossain, a member of the victim's family, said, "We are now suffering from insecurity. We request the administration to ensure our safety and take exemplary punishment for the criminals."

The victim's family members, Md. Isak Bhandari, wife Sharmin Akhter, son: Nur Hossain, daughter: Sharmin, were present at the press conference.

It is worth noting that earlier on March 13, Delwar's family held a press conference and claimed that the incident occurred due to a dispute over throwing nets in the river. But Victim Isak Bhandari said I want to make it clear that their statement is completely false, fabricated and motivated.

The main fact is that the victims mentioned that a false story of throwing nets in the river was fabricated to cover up the yaba trade.

Meanwhile, Bibi Saleha said, I reject my statement. Noor Hossain did not threaten to kill my son.

After this incident, there has been concern among the common people of Rangamati. The locals are expecting effective action from the administration soon so that such incidents do not happen in the future.
