Barrister Suman files GD seeking security
Habiganj-4 Member of Parliament Barrister Sayedul Haque Suman yesterday (29 June) filed a general diary (GD) with Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station in the capital seeking security after he was reportedly informed of a plot to assassinate him.
Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station Inspector (Investigation) Sajib Dey confirmed the matter to The Business Standard.
According to the GD, while staying in Dhaka on 27 June, at around 2am, Suman received a Whatsapp call from the official phone number of the officer-in-charge of Chunarughat Police Station, which falls under Suman's constituency.
The OC told Suman that a "powerful group" has formed a team of 4-5 persons to kill Suman, reads the GD.
"When I asked him about the persons, the OC refused to reveal their identities and advised me to stay cautious," Suman said in the GD.
Barrister Suman was called several times on his phone for a comment on the issue but he did not answer.
