Armed with indigenous weapons and sticks, a political opponent mob carried out terror attacks and vandalism at the Jatiya Party (JPA) party office in Kakrail, the capital, before setting it on fire.

The incident of violence occurred at around 6:30 pm on Saturday, August 30th.

JPA activists said that on Saturday afternoon, a group of mob terrorists, formed from various groups, deliberately threw bricks, stones and torn shoes at the police on guard while they were passing through the Kakrail intersection in front of the JPA office with a procession. This shows that they had made this preparation in advance.

Shortly after this, at around 5:45 pm, attacks, vandalism, and arson occurred.

At this time, the police resorted to lathicharge to disperse the protesters, which led to a chase between the two sides.

Jamaat activists said that they had no leaders or activists there. The mob terrorists came to attack and set fire to the place knowing that. They also attacked the police on guard.

Clashes and chases are ongoing as of the publication of the report.

Our correspondents reported that police fired sound grenades and tear gas shells to control the situation and disperse the mob.
