Police detained five activists in Parbatipur, Dinajpur, on Wednesday after they attempted to reopen a banned Awami League office. The detainees—Akhtar Hossain, Sajjad Hossain, Gouranga Roy, Mozammel Haque, and Bablu Sarkar—were sent to jail following a police operation led by Officer-in-Charge Faruk Hossain. Authorities said the arrests followed tensions surrounding the reopening attempt, and a case was filed against the individuals.

Similar incidents occurred in Chattogram, Narayanganj, and Barguna, where activists of the banned Awami League reopened offices, hoisted national and party flags, and displayed banners. In Chattogram, a video posted by Mahibul Hasan Chowdhury Naufel showed the reopening of the city Awami League office after 18 months. Police in multiple districts said they were identifying those involved and investigating the incidents.

Local police officials in Narayanganj and Barguna confirmed that investigations were underway, while opposition representatives in Barguna reported the incidents to the administration, urging swift action.
