The younger daughter of the victim said, 'Nazmul Hossain tried to rape her elder sister about 6 years ago. A case is going on in the court in this regard. We suffered a lot of torture by filing a case against him. After the fall of the Awami League government on August 5, BNP leader Ripon, his brother Shajahan and Nazmul attacked our house again and vandalized and looted our house. Then on Saturday (November 9) morning, Ripon took a team and started cutting the ripe paddy of our land.'

Seeking the cooperation of the local administration and senior officials of the government to take necessary measures in this regard, the victim farmer Raheez Uddin said, 'I stopped the cooperation of the family members and the police of Manohardi police station after receiving the news of paddy harvesting. Later, when the police left, BNP leader Ripon with the help of Kanan, son of Abdul Majeed Lal Mia of the same area, beat us again and took away the paddy of the land.'
