At least four Ansar members were injured yesterday when they clashed with the police during demonstrations demanding outstanding election duty remunerations.
Saifullah Rasel, Ansar commander of Dhaka city west zone, said Ansar members started protests at the capital’s Technical intersection yesterday evening urging authorities concerned to pay the dues for election duty. But the police launched a sudden attack on the demonstrating men and injured four of them, Rasel claimed.
Meanwhile, Darus Salam police station Inspector Kawsar Jahan admitted that the police fired four rounds of bullet at the demonstrators, but only when protesters started throwing bricks at the police after refusing to move away from the blocked Mazar Road. No one was hurt, he added.
