Five cops among 25 hurt in AL infighting
At least 25 people, including five policemen, were injured in a clash between two factions of Awami League (AL) at Ysufdia village in Saltha upazila on Monday night.
Police arrested Md Wahiduzzaman, former chairman of the upazila parishad, in this connection.
Locals said there was a longstanding conflict between Wahiduzzaman and Md Enayat Hossain, a local AL activist, over establishing supremacy in the area.
As a sequel to the conflict, the men of the two rivals on Monday attacked each other with lethal weapons, leaving at least 20 people from both sides injured.
Five policemen were also injured during the incident, said Subrata Goldar, sub-inspector of Saltah Police Station.
