Md. Polash Tushar Pathan, Investigative Reporter ||
Residents of Bishwambharpur
upazila in Sunamganj have expressed growing concern over allegations of drug
trafficking, extortion and the activities of juvenile gangs in the area.
According to local complainants, fear of retaliation has discouraged many
people from speaking publicly about the issue.Several residents alleged
that Delwar Bhuiyan, 47, son of Suleman Mia, has long been accused of
involvement in various criminal activities. They claim the allegations have
contributed to a sense of insecurity in the locality, with many alleged victims
reluctant to file complaints or speak out due to fear of reprisals.Some residents also alleged
that Delwar Bhuiyan is known to mention the name or influence of local BNP
leader SM Mahbub Mallik while operating in the area. However, no statement from
SM Mahbub Mallik was available regarding the allegation.Locals have called for an
impartial investigation to verify the allegations. They urged the authorities
to take legal action against anyone found responsible, regardless of political
affiliation or personal identity. They also demanded increased police patrols
and tighter surveillance in the border-adjacent areas.A responsible official at the
local police station said that any specific complaint supported by information
or evidence would be investigated seriously. Appropriate legal action would be
taken if the allegations are found to be true.Before publishing this
report, attempts were made to contact both Delwar Hossain and SM Mahbub Mallik
for their comments, but they could not be reached. Their statements will be
included if they become available.
