Dhaka North City Corporation polls mayoral candidate Abdullah Al Kafee has given ultimatum to police to arrest the culprits within Friday who were involved in sexually harassing some women during Pohela Boishakh celebration.
He made the statement while presenting his election manifesto at National Press Club on Thursday morning.
“If those culprits are not arrested by Friday, I will go on a sit-in strike in front of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police office on Saturday.”
When thousands of people were celebrating the Pohela Boishakh on Tuesday, gangs of unruly youths swooped on around five to seven women and sexually harassed them at Suhrawardy Udyan and some parts of Dhaka University campus.
