The central committee of Bangladesh’s opposition student organization, Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), has expelled Rahat Hasan Kaiyum, the member secretary of Nakla Upazila JCD in Sherpur, following a violent assault on the local agriculture officer. The incident occurred on Wednesday when Rahat and his associate Fazlu stormed into the office of Upazila Agriculture Officer Shahariar Mursalin Mehedi. They allegedly attacked and verbally abused him after he refused to include their preferred individuals in the list of beneficiaries for government agricultural incentives. A CCTV recording of the attack went viral on social media, sparking widespread condemnation. In a statement issued on Thursday, signed by JCD’s central office secretary Jahangir Alam, it was confirmed that the expulsion was approved by JCD president Rakibul Islam Rakib and general secretary Nasir Uddin Nasir. The decision strips Rahat of his primary membership and all organizational positions. Meanwhile, police have filed a regular case at Nakla Police Station, naming Rahat and Fazlu as accused. Law enforcement authorities have initiated operations to arrest the culprits. The incident has raised concerns over political interference and violence in public administration offices.
