Supporters of Awami League leader and junior Home Minister Shamsul Hoque Tuku rigged votes in Pabna Sadar on Sunday during the parliamentary elections.
Tuku's son Ashik Al Shams led a gang of some 50 supporters and attacked Shahidnagar Government High School and Satiakola Dakhil Madrassa around noon.
Presiding officers of both polling stations, Atiqur Rahman and Sakhawat Hossain, made similar complaints. They sent a letter to the TNO.
Thana Nirbahi Officer (TNO) Shafiqul Islam said they are taking due actions regarding this matter, saying “These fake votes will be cancelled.”
Professor Abu Sayeed, former junior information minister and a candidate, alleged that Tuku's supporters were preventing votes to be cast on his polls-sign, the lock.
Meanwhile, supporters of Tuku also attempted to rig polls at Samannapara Government Primary School centre, but police dispelled them with blank shots.
