Workers, owners, and residents of Dhaka’s Adabor area surrounded the local police station overnight demanding justice after an armed attack on a garment factory. The incident occurred on Saturday evening when members of a local gang allegedly led by Kala Russell entered the Abir Embroidery factory and injured several workers with sharp weapons after the owner refused to pay extortion money. Two workers, Tofayel and Hafiz Ahmed, were seriously wounded while trying to resist the attackers.
Following the attack, protesters gathered outside Adabor Police Station, chanting slogans throughout the night for the arrest of the culprits. Police later detained five members of the youth gang and confirmed that a case had been filed. According to the Dhaka Metropolitan Police, the attack took place during workers’ salary distribution, and operations are ongoing to apprehend the remaining suspects.
Authorities said the situation was brought under control after security forces intervened. The factory owner, Mostafizur Rahman Zohir, who is also the general secretary of the embroidery owners’ association, lodged the complaint that led to the arrests.
