At least ten people were injured in a violent clash between activists of the BNP and its affiliated Krishak Dal in Gazipur’s Sreepur upazila on Friday afternoon. The incident occurred in front of Arbela Fashion Limited at Gararon area of Boromi Union, reportedly over control of a garment factory’s scrap trade and extortion demands related to worker transport buses. Several worker buses were also vandalized during the confrontation.
Witnesses said an argument between the two groups escalated into a fight involving sticks and iron rods, causing panic and briefly disrupting traffic near the factory. The injured, identified as members of both political groups, received treatment at local clinics and hospitals.
Krishak Dal leader Masum Ahmed alleged that BNP’s Boromi Union general secretary Akteruzzaman Shamim demanded Tk 100,000 and a monthly payment of Tk 50,000 from him, which led to the clash. Shamim denied the allegation, claiming that Krishak Dal members attacked them during a meeting about upcoming programs. Police said they received a written complaint and would take legal action after investigation.
