When the plaintiff went to protest, the accused beat him up and looted cash.
Independent MP Rumin Farhana wrote in a post on Facebook about the case, “On February 21st, they did not stop me from going to the Shaheed Minar, today they have created a false case against my leaders and activists. Although the entire incident took place in front of the police administration on February 21st, they were still dumb and deaf. This is an example of the new Bangladesh and new politics.
