UNB, Narayanganj :
Santras Nirmul Toki Manch convener Rafiur Rabbi came under attack in the city’s Kalir Bazar area on Friday evening while campaigning ahead of Narayanganj-5 by-polls slated for June 26.
Witnesses said Rafiur along with others was distributing Toki Manch leaflets in the area around 6pm. The leaflets read ‘We want capital punishment of all the killers of Tanvir Mahmud Toki… vote is your sacred property. Don’t vote anyone belonging to killer and terrorist family considering the interests of your children’.
At one stage, some activists of Jatiya Party which fielded AKM Salim Osman as its candidate in the by-polls obstructed the leaflet distribution, triggering an argument.
Later, they attacked the leaflet distributors, leaving Rafiur and several others injured.
