Miscreants attacked and vandalised the residence of former president Abdul Hamid in Mithamoin upazila of Kishoreganj district on Monday night.

Witnesses said that a jubilant procession was brought out by local political activists at night following the capital punishment handed down to former prime minister Sheikh Hasina.


Around 20–25 individuals from the procession allegedly broke open the main gate of the residence and carried out the vandalism.

Alamgir Kabir, officer-in-charge of Mithamoin Police Station, said the group stormed into the ancestral home of the former president at around 10:30pm and vandalised furniture inside.

Police rushed to the scene after being informed and brought the situation under control, the OC added.
