Six years after the incident, Professor Auranganjeev asked about the filing of the case. Abdur Rahman said that he did not get any help from anyone because of BNP. Even my case was returned without taking it from the police station. I was seriously injured in that attack. Many people including my wife were injured. Army was then deployed in Rajshahi city to strengthen security. But despite trying to contact them, they did not respond. Besides, there was political pressure and death threats. That's why I filed a case yesterday after the fall of this government.
