Manikganj BNP leader alleges death threat by party rivals
BNP leader Tozammel Hoq Toza of Manikganj, now under treatment at Dhaka Medical College Hospital, has alleged that he is getting death threats from his rivals in the party.
Toza, a candidate for the post of secretary of Manikganj district BNP, was injured in attacks by his rivals at Makinganj earlier. He is former president of the district JCD.
In a seven-page written statement sent to Manikganj Press Club yesterday, Toza said the attackers are moving freely and threatening him with death.
Education Minister Dr M Osman Foruque who is minister-in-charge for Manikganj district has asked police to nab the attackers.
Toza said the BNP chief Khaleda Zia took a correct decision by replacing Chief Whip Knondakor Delwar Hossain with Dr Osman as the minister-in- charge for the district. Delwar had let loose a terror in the district, he alleged.
