Gunshots fired at BNP leader's residence in Natore

Unidentified attackers opened fire at the residence of a local BNP leader in Bagatipara Upazila’s Jayantipur area yesterday around midnight (16 December).

Abdur Rashid Chowdhury, former president of Dayarampur union BNP, said a group of people on motorbikes stopped near his house and fired gunshots indiscriminately before fleeing the scene.

The bullets struck several parts of the house including its windows and walls.

But no one was harmed during the attack.

Bagatipara Police Station Officer-in-Charge Aminul Islam said they visited the spot and will investigate the attack.
