A case has been filed against 150 people in connection with an incident at the central Shaheed Minar in Sarail, Brahmanbaria, where Member of Parliament Barrister Rumin Farhana was allegedly obstructed while paying tribute. The case was lodged on Sunday afternoon by one of her supporters, Ahad, at Sarail Police Station. Former Sarail Upazila BNP general secretary Anwar Hossain was named as the main accused, with five individuals identified and another 140–150 unnamed persons included. Officer-in-Charge Manjur Kader Bhuiyan confirmed that the case has been recorded and legal action will follow after investigation.

The incident occurred around midnight on Friday when Rumin Farhana faced resistance from local BNP activists at the Shaheed Minar. Allegations suggest that under Anwar Hossain’s leadership, some activists chanted slogans and tore her floral wreath, leading to scuffles between the two sides. She left the area without placing her tribute.

In protest, her supporters blocked the Dhaka–Sylhet highway at Shahbazpur in Sarail for about an hour, disrupting traffic. Rumin Farhana had earlier been expelled from the BNP after contesting and winning the Brahmanbaria-2 seat as an independent candidate.
