A gun attack targeted the private car of former Chhatra Dal leader Amir Hossain, a supporter of BNP-nominated candidate Nazrul Islam Azad, in Araihazar, Narayanganj on Saturday night, February 1. The incident occurred around 7:45 p.m. near Baghanagar on the Araihazar–Bishnandi ferry ghat bypass road. Although bullets shattered the car’s windows, Amir Hossain and his companion, Mahmudpur Union BNP senior joint convener Md. Sadekur Rahman Sadek, escaped unharmed.

According to Amir Hossain, two unidentified men on a motorcycle approached from the same direction and fired at the right and front windows of his moving black car before fleeing the scene. Locals informed the police, who later inspected the site. The identities of the attackers and the motive behind the shooting remain unknown.

Araihazar Police Station Officer-in-Charge Alauddin stated that an investigation has been initiated based on the complaint and that necessary legal measures will be taken.
