Residents and BNP activists in Kaharol upazila of Dinajpur staged a protest and surrounded the local police station late Tuesday night following an extortion allegation against upazila BNP secretary Md. Shamim. The complaint was filed by decoration businessman Harichandra, who claimed that police detained him near Harisva with two liters of petrol and later called Shamim to the scene. Harichandra alleged that Shamim threatened him with legal trouble and demanded Tk 15,000, taking Tk 10,000 on the spot and pressing for the remaining amount the next day.
The protest took place inside the police station in the presence of local BNP and Jubo Dal leaders, including Sadeq Hossain and Anarul Islam, who demanded punishment for Shamim. Union Jubo Dal vice president Saidul Islam Rubel accused Shamim of habitual extortion and urged his removal from the party. Kaharol police circle officer Moniruzzaman, who arrived at the scene, said the situation was brought under control and an investigation was underway. He stated that no police officer was found to have taken money, but action would follow if involvement was proven.
