Professor Ratan Siddiqui's house comes under attack in Uttara

National Curricula and Textbook Board (NCTB) former chairman professor Ratan Siddiqui's house has allegedly been attacked in Uttara.

Ratan Siddiqui said the incident took place after Juma prayers on Friday.

He said he along with his wife was returning home in the afternoon. At the time, they were unable to take their car inside home due to a motorbike.

As the driver of the car blew horn, a person appeared there and got into an altercation.

The man falsely alleged, "I have said a mockery is taking place in the name of religion. He also angered Muslims in a mosque opposite my house. They also misbehaved with my wife."

Ratan Siddiqui said, "Seeing the situation abnormal, we locked the house after parking the car in the garage. Then several thousand people tried to break the lock. Later police appeared and brought the situation under control."
