Akhtar Hossain, member secretary of the National Citizens Party (NCP) and the Shapla symbol candidate representing an 11-party alliance including Jamaat and NCP in Rangpur-4 (Kaunia–Pirgacha), has reported receiving a death threat. The threat came through a phone call from an unknown number on the evening of February 7, 2026, while he was campaigning in Kishamat village under Chaola Union. Following the incident, he filed a general diary (GD) at Pirgacha Police Station for his safety.
In a video message released on social media Saturday night, Hossain stated that intimidation cannot halt their political progress and that they are moving forward with public support. He emphasized that the election should be contested on ideals and programs, not through threats or fear. He also mentioned that Shapla symbol activists across the country have faced similar threats.
Hossain expressed hope that law enforcement agencies would remain highly vigilant to ensure a fair election. He added that their political journey, built through years of struggle, would not be stopped by fear or intimidation.
