ACTING president of
the Democratic Youth Forum’s Matiranga unit, Joni Tripura, was harassed and
searched by military intelligence personnel at Matiranga bazaar yesterday.
The incident took
place at 5pm, Monday, while Mr Joni was having refreshments at Zannat
Restaurant in Matiranga bazar after journeying from his home in Gomati.
“Two Bengali people
identifying themselves as Jashim and Forhad and as members of military
intelligence accosted me and began asking silly questions such as ‘where are
you coming from, where do you live, where will you go, what do you do for a
living and blah blah” Joni told chtnews.com.
“They were so rude and
uncouth that at one point they went on to search my bag without my permission.”
he added.
However, as they found
nothing incriminating, they left quietly.
