In Dhaka-6 constituency, Jamaat-e-Islami candidate Dr. Abdul Mannan, supported by an 11-party alliance, alleged that three of his workers were unfairly sentenced by a magistrate. He made the claim at an emergency press conference held Wednesday night at Shaheed Junaid Square near Dhupkhola playground in the capital. Mannan stated that the workers were preparing envelopes containing money for challenging fake votes, as permitted by the Election Commission, when BNP activists allegedly attacked them. He said police and a magistrate arrived but sentenced his workers without a hearing.

Dr. Mannan argued that keeping money for challenging fake votes was not illegal and that the punishment disrupted a fair voting environment. He further alleged that BNP activists attacked his polling agents and a presiding officer at Jubilee School, injuring several people, while police and army personnel restored order but made no arrests. Mannan said he would take legal action over the incidents.

He accused the administration of partiality and claimed that BNP activists were trying to intimidate Jamaat supporters out of fear of electoral defeat.
