Another case against former Kushtia BNP MP
Daulatpur police have recorded a case against former BNP lawmaker Reza Ahmed Bachchu alias Bachchu Mollah after investigation.
The case, filed by one Abdul Malek on July 23, was investigated following a court order.
Bachhu Mollah, elected from Kushtia-1 constituency, faces three other cases filed with a Kushtia court since January 11.
Police said he is absconding. He is the son of late Ahsanul Haq Mollah, a former state minister for post and telecommunication.
Malek in the case alleged that after the BNP-led four-party alliance came to power in 2001, Bachchu Mollah led some party cadres who ransacked and looted at least 90 houses at Chatarpara in Daulatpur upazila between November 1 and November 22, 2001.
A large number of people including some Awami League activists and supporters were forced to flee homes following threats by the Bachchu Mollah, the complainant alleged in the case.
The victims went to Daulatpur police station after the incident to file a case but police declined to record a case against Bachhu Mollah as he was a ruling party lawmaker, Malek alleged.
Bachchu Mollah and 42 BNP cadres were sued in the case.
Bachchu was elected a lawmaker from Kushtia-1 constituency in a by-election in 2004 after his father' death.
