A case has been filed against former Social Welfare Minister Dr Dipu Moni, and her brother Dr JR Wadud Tipu for attacking the residence of Sheikh Farid Ahmed Manik, president of the Chandpur District unit BNP.

Besides, 510 known and 1000-1200 unnamed people have been accused in the case.

The case was filed on Thursday following a complaint lodged by A Razzak Hawlader, joint convener of Chandpur Municipal Jubo Dal, said Sheikh Mohsin Alam, Officer-in-Charge of Chandpur Sadar Model Police Station.

Sheikh Farid Ahmed Manik, who was abroad for medical treatment during the attack, claimed the attackers were ill-motivated and they did it to take political revenge.

The incident occurred on the evening of July 18, when a mob of 1,000 to 1,200 armed individuals reportedly vandalized, looted, and set fire to Manik's Monira Bhaban on JM Sengupta Road.

The accused include current and former leaders of the Awami League and affiliated organizations.

Legal proceedings are ongoing while ensuring that innocent individuals are not harassed, said the OC.
