| Two self styled so-called Islamic extremist organisations have sent letters threatening to "blow up" the Jhalakati court building and offices of the DC and the SP by August 30 to retaliate the "killing" of Sarbahara leader Parimal Sikder by police. Sources in the administration said, Deputy Commissioner Md. Shawkat Nabi, Police Superin-tendent Md Mahfuzul Islam and District and Sessions Judge Md Asgar Ali received the separate letters sent in the name of Zihad-e-Janata on Thursday. In separate letters, another organisation named Muzahedin-e-Islam also threatened to kill Public Prosecutor advocate Haider Hussein, Assistant Public Prosecutor advocate Manzur Hussein and freedom fighter and poet Abdul Mannan Sikder, a teacher at Amua Shahid Raja Degree College in Jhalakati. The letters were sent on Tuesday last (August 17). In the letters, the two so-called extremist bodies expressed annoyance over the incidents before and after the Jhalakathi pourasabha election held on May 9 and the overall political situation and vowed to take "revenge", the sources said. The letter sent to Prof. Mannan advised him to write in favor of Islam only. "Otherwise, no body will be able to save you", it said. |
