Mayor protests ‘misleading’ information on FB
Tangail municipality Mayor Jamilur Rahman Miron at a press conference yesterday protested spreading ‘false and misleading’ information about him and two other councilors through Facebook.
He said this while reading out a written speech at the conference at Tangail Press Club.
A vested quarter, led by one Abdur Razzak, is spreading false and fabricated information about him and councilors of the municipality Saifuzzaman Sohel and Aminur Rahman Amin, said the mayor.
Razzak also circulated the copy of an application without having signature of anyone and sent it to the office of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) as part of conspiracy to damage the image of the mayor and the two councilors.
However, the real truth is that Abdur Razzak of Chowbaria in Tangail on April 24, 2018 submitted a petition to the municipality against Sohag Miah of Adi Tangail area for resolving a dispute over a piece of land.
Following the application, Tangail municipality on May 23 issued notices to both sides for appearing before the office on May 28 with necessary documents and with their lawyers.
Sohag Miah, however, prayed three months time for submiting his documents and the municipality gave him two months for it.
Later, the municipality issued notices to the both sides for appearing before the office with necessary documents and with their lawyers on August 7.
On that day, Sohag Miah was able to submit necessary documents but Abdur Razzak failed to submit necessary documents in favour of his claim. The municipality, after examining the documents in coordination with local councilor and legal advisor, took a decision as per rules, which angered Abdur Razzak.
Replying to a query, the mayor said he will take legal steps against in spreading misleading information about them.
Mentionable, various allegations including land grabbing, extortion and abduction were brought against the mayor and two councilors through Razzak’s facebook page named “Scandal Somogra”.
