Police foil Jamaat programme

Our Correspondent, Barisal
Police foiled a discussion programme at the Jamaat office in the town yesterday. Aminul Islam Khasuru, city Jamaat secretary, said they arranged a centrally announced discussion programme on 'digital election rigging' at their office at Sadar Road area duly informing police and administration. However plain-clothed policemen raided the office, barred the participants from entering the venue and forced the party to cancel the programme, he said, condemning the incident. Jahangir Alam, officer-in-charge of Barisal Kotwali police station, denied the Jamaat claim terming it 'false' and aimed at creating 'media sensation'.
