| 2014-04-03 |
| [Dhaka Tribune] Around 50 people sustained injuries yesterday evening in a clash between the students of a local madrasa in the capital's Tajmahal Road and the followers of "Haider Baba" alias "Haata Baba," who recently passed away. Hundreds of people from both the groups locked into clash which suspended vehicular movements on all roads in and around the area. This resulted in severe traffic congestion. Police fired shots and charged batons to disperse the crowd and bring the situation under control. Additional police were deployed in the area to avert further festivities, though a tense situation prevailed among people of both groups. |
