Agitated subscribers on Saturday morning attacked the Power Development Board (PDB) sub-station at Shambhuganj Bazar in Sadar upazila. Two employees of the sub-station were injured in the attack. Sources said, a PDB transformer on Mymensingh-Netrakona road in Shambhuganj Bazar area was stolen on November 30 night. Following the incident, the subscribers of the area informed it to the authorities concerned several times but no transformer was installed there. As their demand went unheeded, the agitated people besieged the sub-station at around 10:00 am and ransacked the office. During the attack, PDB sub-station operator Basit Ali, 35, and security guard Afar Uddin, 45, were injured.
