Four BNP men, including Dagonbhuiyan Pourasava (municipality) unit General Secretary Alauddin Alo and pourasava councillor Shahabuddin, were injured in an attack by a gang on Friday night. Locals said a gang of about 16 led by Helal, Shipon, Liton, Russel and Raju, beat up Alo's brother Mainuddin Manik at Dagonbhuiyan Bazar at around 8:30pm. As Alo and his brothers Shahabuddin and Korban Ali Bachchu rushed to the spot, the gang also beat them up. Alo, Manik and Bachchu were admitted to Feni Sadar Hospital while Shahabuddin was admitted to a local clinic. Shahabuddin told this correspondent that the attackers belong to local Jubo League and Chhatra League. Dagonbhuiyan upazila AL president Master Kamal Uddin denied the allegation, saying no Jubo League and Chhatra League activists were involved in the incident. A trader of Dagonbhuiyan Bazar said the incident might be linked with a family feud over hide business.
