UNB, Feni
Two cases were filed against 20 people, including former Awami League lawmaker and alleged godfather of Feni Joynal Abedin Hazari, last (Monday) night on charges of attack, looting, vandalism and mugging.
Abdul Mannan, private car driver of Jubo League leader Nizam Hazari, and Chhatra League leader Ziaul Alam Mister filed separate cases with Feni Model Police Station at about 9:30pm on Monday.
Joynal Hazari’s cousin Mosharref Hossain Hazari Miah, nephew Faruq Hazari, commissioner Titu Hazari, Bitu Hazari, Pitu Hazari and Shajahan Saju were among the accused.
According to the statement of complainant Ziaul Alam Mister, Joynal Hazari had directed Chhatra League leader Mister to contact him regularly after he got bail from the High Court.
As Mister ignored his direction, Joynal Hazari became angry. On Sunday night some armed miscreants, led by Joynal Hazari, attacked Mister at his Purbo Ukilpara residence in the district town.
They beat up Mister, fired blank shots to create panic and looted cash, gold ornaments and other valuables of the house after beating up the inmates, the complainant said.
Complainant of another case Abdul Mannan alleged that when he was going to keep the car at the house of Nizam Hazari at Purbo Ukilpara, some armed goons attacked him, beat him and took away the car.
Meanwhile, witnesses and other victims said the associates of Joynal Hazari beat up Feni Sadar upazila BCL President Anwar Hossain Manik and former BCL leader Mohammad Hanif when, hearing of the attack, they went to the house of Mister along with Nizam Hazari on Sunday night.
Later, police rescued injured Manik and Hanif from Masterpara area of the town. Both were given treatment in a private clinic.
Joynal Hazari, who went into hiding before the parliamentary polls in 2001, appeared before the High Court (HC) on February 22 this year for bail in the cases filed earlier against him.
Hazari, tried in absentia, was awarded a total 60 years' imprisonment in five out of 19 cases.
A High Court division bench on February 22 directed Hazari, wanted in 19 criminal cases, to surrender before the trial courts within eight weeks in connection with 11 criminal cases.
The HC bench, however, asked the law enforcement agencies not to harass or arrest Hazari in the eleven cases within the eight weeks and also granted him ad interim bail for two months in a carjacking case.
