At least 15 people were injured in a violent clash between two groups in Roumari upazila of Kurigram district on Thursday, reportedly over a longstanding land dispute. The incident occurred at midday in Madhya Ichakuri village under Roumari Sadar Union. Among the injured, four — Abul Hashem, Abdus Sabur, Ashura Khatun, and Majnu Mia — were critically hurt and transferred to Rangpur Medical College Hospital. According to police and local sources, the conflict stems from a 40-year-old dispute over approximately 3.84 acres of land between Israfil Haque and Raja Mia, both residents of the same village. The altercation began when Israfil’s group attempted to plough the disputed land, prompting Raja Mia’s supporters to intervene, leading to a prolonged confrontation. Police later arrived at the scene and brought the situation under control. Authorities said no formal complaint has yet been filed, but an investigation will follow if one is received.
