The Subarnachor Upazila Awami League publicity secretary was expelled during an emergency party meeting on Friday night, said Subarnachor Upazila Awami League President Omar Farooq. It has been alleged that ‘supporters’ of Ruhul Amin gang-raped a woman on the night of the general election on Dec 30 and tied up her family. “The party cannot take responsibility for crimes committed by personal offences,” said Awami League leader Omar Farooq. The victim has alleged that she argued with Awami League supporters at a polling centre and that ‘supporters’ of local Awami League leader Ruhul Amin then went to her house and gang-raped her. Ruhul Amin was then arrested from a poultry barn in the district that night.
