On early hours of Thursday, Dinajpur's Ghoraghat UNO Wahida Khanam and her father were attacked by some miscreants inside their house. They broke into her government residence through ventilator. Their guard was locked into another room.
They were initially admitted to Rangpur Medical College Hospital in critical condition. However, on Thursday afternoon, the UNO was airlifted to Dhaka by a Bangladesh Air Force helicopter when her health condition started to deteriorate further.
A joint team of police and Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) later arrested four people including main accused of the attack on Wahida Khanam and her father.
