Quoting the victims and doctors, Kadamtali Police Station’s Officer-in-Charge (OC) Abdus Salam Mia said that a gang of 10-12 local drug dealers tried to abduct Sumon’s uncle Ataur Rahman from in front of their residence on Khalpara Commissioner Road around 8:30pm. The miscreants hurled 6-7 crude bombs when the relatives
and local people chased them.
He said that the clash sprang from property dispute.
Suman and Emon received splinters in their right feet and Rifat’s right cheek suffered injures.
The OC said that the law enforcing agencies were looking into the matter.
