According to the source, at 11 pm that night, Begum Habib's nephew Nishan and UP member Touhidul Islam Tuhin led the mob over Malaysian expatriate Sirajul Islam to open the door saying that he had something to say.
At that time, when asked who Sirajul Islam was, Zishan said, uncle, I am the nephew of Habib. As soon as Sirajul opened the door, about 40/50 armed terrorists entered into the house and beat Sirajul Islam, Shoyab Hossain and housewife Shilpi Begum with hockey sticks, causing them serious injuries. During this time, they broke into the cupboards, furniture and trunk, looted 2 lakh taka in cash and three bhari of gold ornaments, went outside the house and exploded a cocktail and a round of bullets. After the incident, locals rushed to the scene and quickly admitted the injured to Ishwardi Hospital. Upon receiving the news, the police inspected the scene.
Currently, the situation is tense in the area. BNP Convener Habibur Rahman Habib told reporters that the unpleasant incident that occurred at Siraj's house last night is regrettable.
The incident should not have happened in any way. The workers of the Jubodal Chhatra Dal in my area are involved in this incident. I have told the OC of Ishwardi Police Station to investigate the matter properly and take legal action against my brothers and nephews if they are involved in the incident.
Habib's younger brother Bhola said that Jisan had a conflict with Shoyab. It was supposed to be resolved socially. The accused former UP
member Touhidul Islam Tuhin said that the complaint is false and baseless.
