Police arrested Chattogram city Juba Dal president Mia Mohammad Harun Khan for allegedly assaulting the headmaster of Khan Saheb Abdul Hakim High School.
He was arrested on Sunday morning after the headmaster, Mohammad Nizam Uddin, filed a case on Saturday evening with Double Mooring Police Station.
It was learned that the incident occurred on June 30, when the headmaster along with other teachers and the district education officer went to the school premises for an investigation.
There, at one point the headmaster was beaten.
According to the Police, Md. Ekram Mia, member (guardian) of the school managing committee and brother of arrested Harun, had wanted to arrange the wedding of his daughter at the school premises but the headmaster had said no due to the Covid-19 situation.
However, Ekram arranged it anyway, defying the headmaster but the local authority managed to prevent it acting over a secret tip.
Ekram held a grudge against the headmaster and teachers of the school over this and threatened them not to go to the school ever again.
Officer-in-charge (OC) of Double Mooring Police Station Mohammad Mohsin said on June 30 an investigation team led by Panchlaish-Double Mooring education officer Mohammad Shafiul Alam came to the school along with some teachers including the headmaster.
That day Ekram Mia’s brother Juba Dal leader Mia Mohammad Harun Khan with his companions forcibly entered the headmaster’s room, insulted and threatened everyone and slapped the headmaster.
