NCP leader and MP Nusrat Tabassum has alleged that her family home in Daulatpur, Kushtia, was attacked with petrol bombs, saying such attacks would not silence them.

Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, November 12, she said four explosions occurred at around 12:15 AM on Wednesday night.

Nusrat personally suspects the Awami League was behind the attack, claiming she had received several threats from Awami League leaders and activists before the incident.

She said the house was not abandoned, as claimed in some media reports, but was occupied by a caretaker's family. A child was injured, while several goats and chickens died in the fire.

She also alleged that police arrived nearly an hour after the incident and criticised the delay in the Fire Service's response.

Calling for a proper investigation, Nusrat urged law enforcement agencies to collect evidence and identify those responsible.

Earlier, a fire broke out at her ancestral home in Bagoyan village shortly after midnight on Wednesday.
