Dhaka, July 27 (IBNS): Unknown men allegedly kidnapped a ruling Awami League leader in Bangladesh capital Dhaka on Friday, media reports said.

According to primary reports, “missing” Parvez Hossain Sarker was a former Upazila Parishad chairman of Comilla’s Titas upazila with Awami League’s ticket, reported The daily Star.

  Mrittunjay Dey, assistant commissioner (Mohammadpur) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police, cited witnesses to tell The Daily Star he was forcefully picked up under broad daylight.

He told the newspaper that the Awami League leader was returning towards his home in Lalmatia area after offering Jumma prayers at a local mosque.

It was at that point that he was taken away by some unknown men from the door of his residence in the locality.

Describing the same, Tahmina Afroz, Parvez’s wife, told The Daily Star that her husband was trying to secure a nomination from Awami League to contest for Comilla-2 constituency in the next general election.

Details of the incident are still not known.
