A video showing a brick kiln worker being tied and beaten in Lakshmipur’s Kamalnagar upazila has gone viral on social media. The incident occurred on April 9 in the Moulvirhat area of Torabganj Union. The victim, identified as Kalu from Charbosu Badamtoli Bazar, was allegedly taken from his in-laws’ house by Ismail, a labor supplier, and assaulted with his hands bound. The six-minute video shows Kalu being beaten and verbally abused while being forced to make promises.
According to local sources, Kalu had agreed to work at a brick kiln in Chattogram for Tk 80,000 but returned home due to illness. Ismail reportedly brought him back from his in-laws’ house, tied him up, and coerced him to have his brothers work in his place. After the video spread online, locals demanded justice. Police later rescued Kalu, while Ismail went into hiding.
Police confirmed that the victim was rescued and said efforts are ongoing to arrest the accused.
