A woman in Bangladesh has accused a local political leader of assaulting her and her husband over a dispute concerning unpaid wages. Taslima Akter Khuki claims that her husband worked for Md Safik, a former general secretary of the Jatiyatabadi Jubo Dal in Subarnachar, Noakhali, for two months without receiving any salary.

Khuki alleges that Safik became enraged when she forbade her husband from continuing to work for him, especially after the family struggled financially during Eid-ul-Azha. She claims Safik initially attacked her husband with a pipe-covered iron rod when they resisted his attempt to retrieve a fishing net near their home. Safik allegedly returned later with his brother-in-law and attacked them again when Khuki intervened.

However, Md Safik has vehemently denied these allegations. He stated that he has a long-standing good relationship with the couple and instead accused Khuki's husband of breaking into his sister's house and stealing fish. Safik also claims the couple attacked him and caused a broken nose.

Officer-in-Charge Mohammad Lutfur Rahman of Char Jabbar Police Station confirmed that no written complaint has been filed yet. He stated that legal action will be taken following an investigation once a formal complaint is received.
