A video allegedly showing Md. Intaj Ali, chairman of Nijpat Union Parishad and organizational secretary of Jaintapur Upazila BNP in Sylhet, using drugs has gone viral on social media, triggering widespread discussion and criticism. The 46-second clip, reportedly filmed at the home of Fayzul Islam Fazlu in Sarighat Dhupi village, began circulating widely on Wednesday. Locals claimed the footage was genuine, though no official confirmation has been made. Attempts to contact the chairman were unsuccessful as his phone remained switched off.
Fayzul Islam, said to appear in the video, later posted on Facebook accusing the chairman of introducing him to drug use and developing a relationship with his wife. The post intensified public reaction, with many social media users demanding an impartial investigation. Local BNP leaders stated they were unaware of the incident or had not yet verified the video. Police confirmed that no formal complaint had been filed but said they would take necessary action if required.
The controversy has drawn significant attention in Sylhet, with calls for accountability and transparency surrounding the allegations.
