Clashes took place between the activists and supporters of the two candidates in front of the Election Commission (EC) building. The incident took place in front of the election building at Agargaon in the capital on Thursday (December 14) afternoon between the candidate with the boat symbol and the supporters of the independent candidate. At this time, the police arrested two people.
It is known that Naeem Hasan, the independent candidate of Comilla-1, came to the Election Commission to participate in the hearing to get his candidature back. His candidature was canceled by the Returning Officer as the information of one percent of the voters was inconsistent.
When he came out of the gate of the Election Commission for the purpose of the hearing, there was a scuffle and a clash with the supporters of Awami League candidate Abdus Sabur. Police arrested two people from the spot.
Naeem Hasan said, the supporters got excited because they were talking abusively about me and my supporters. At that time some people including Sarwar Babu and Murad of the area attacked on us. However, Sarwar Hossain Babu claims that he is the former leader of the local Jubo League. He is not involved in the fight.
