A woman named Rozina Akter, aged 40, was fined 10,000 taka in Bakshiganj, Jamalpur, for illegally storing petrol and selling it at higher prices. The fine was imposed on Monday afternoon by Assistant Commissioner (Land) Asma Ul Husna through a mobile court.
According to the report, Rozina Akter had been storing petrol at her home near the Paresh Chandra Saha Filling Station in the Tinani Para area and selling it at inflated rates.
