Dhaka, Sep 02 (V7N) - The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has dissolved the convening committee of its Chattogram South District unit. The decision was announced in a press release late Sunday night, September 1.
According to the release, the dissolution aligns with the party's recent decisions, and no organizational activities may proceed under the Chattogram South District BNP banner until a new committee is established.
This move follows recent developments involving several top leaders of the Chattogram South District BNP. On Saturday, August 31, the BNP issued show-cause notices to three prominent figures within the district unit. The notices were issued in response to allegations that these leaders were involved in relocating 14 luxury vehicles, reportedly belonging to S Alam Group Chairman Saiful Alam Masud and his family.
BNP Organizing Secretary for Chattogram Division, Mahbubur Rahman Shamim, confirmed the issuance of the notices. He stated that the affected leaders were given 24 hours to provide explanations regarding their actions.
The leaders who received the notices are:
Abu Sufian, Convener of Chattogram South District BNP Enamul Haque Enam, First Joint Convener SM Mamun Mia, Convener of Karnaphuli Upazila BNP The controversy erupted after a video surfaced on social media showing the relocation of 14 luxury vehicles, including models such as BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, and Range Rover. The vehicles were moved from a warehouse owned by Mir Group in the Kalurghat industrial area on the night of August 29.
In the video, Chattogram South District BNP Joint Convener Enamul Haque Enam, Patiya Upazila Jubo Dol Member Secretary Ohidul Alam Chowdhury Piblu, and South District Chhatra Dol Joint Convener Sheikh Mohammad Hossain Nayan were seen overseeing the operation.
