An imam in Shariatpur’s Damudya upazila was attacked after the scale symbol received more votes than the BNP candidate in the recent national election. The incident occurred on Friday, February 13, in the Char-Naraynpur Dewan Bari Mosque area of Purba Damudya Union. The injured, Hafiz Maulana Monir Hossain, serves as the mosque’s imam and teacher. Local sources said that after the election results, local Jubo Dal leader Akib Howlader and others questioned the imam about why the scale symbol had gained more votes. When he denied involvement, they allegedly dragged him out of his room, beat him, and threatened to kill him if he returned to the mosque.
During Friday prayers, worshippers discovered the imam missing and later found him injured. Another local, Shamim Dewan, was also beaten after informing the union chairman about the attack. The incident has caused tension and fear among residents. Locals condemned the assault and demanded a fair investigation. Police said no written complaint had been filed yet but promised action upon receiving one.
