A young man named Ifat went viral after buying a goat for 15 lakh taka from Sadeeq Agro in the capital for sacrifice in Eid-ul-Azha. It is rumored that he is the son of National Board of Revenue official Motiur Rahman. But this government official has clarified that this young man who went viral is not his son. He is not even related to that young man.

When asked, Motiur Rahman told the media, 'I don't know that boy who went viral in the goat incident. He is not my child. It is very embarrassing to involve my name.

Mohammad Imran Hossain, the leader of the 'Sadeeq Agro' farm located in Mohammadpur, said that the young man booked the goat giving only one lakh Tk. But in the end he did not paid the full amount and still not take the goat home from the farm.

Recently, the video of this goat worth 15 lakh taka spread on social media. It shows a boy holding the goat. Imran Hossain is standing next to him.

The gray brown goat, weighs 175 kilograms and is 62 inches tall. Sadeeq Agro bought it from a market in Jessore for Tk 1 million 35 thousand about two months ago. Criticism started after the young man shared a picture with this goat on Facebook. A question arose as to how a revenue officer's son could buy a goat at such a high price.

This criticism started before Eid. But even though the boy deposited the booking money to buy the goat for sacrifice, in the end he did not take the goat from the farm. Even the booking money was not refunded.

In this regard, the owner of Sadeeq Agro. Imran said, a buyer named Ifat bought this from us for 12 lakh taka. We asked the price of 15 lakhs. He did not come to take Khasiti even paid a booking money of one lakh taka. We are trying to contact him since June 11 night but we have not been able to contact him so far. We are still trying to contact him. But he is not picking up the phone.

Why this goat costs lakhs of taka?

The price of the goat, which is the subject of so much discussion, is the largest breed of goat in the world, said Mohammad Imran Hossain, owner of Sadeeq Agro. He said, the name of this breed is 'Beetal' and it is the biggest goat ever in Bangladesh.

Mr. Hossain said, there is only one goat of this rare species in Bangladesh. When asked if it was imported or not, Imran Hossain said that the goat was purchased from a market in Jessore two months ago.

How did this goat come to Jessore market? In this context, he said, we do not know that. However, such goats and big cows are sold in the village market in the early stage. After buying them from the market, we rear them and sell them.

'When information comes to us, we immediately send people and buy it. Because we like the goat very much.

Imran Hossain claimed that the purchase price of this goat was Tk 10 lakh 35 thousand. There are more costs included to it.

That is why its price was fixed at 15 lakh Tk. Another reason for the high price of goats is the superior breed and pedigree.

When asked about the issue of pedigree here, Imran Hossain said that the certificate is shown to the buyer at the time of sale in the case of goats or cows of good pedigree.

Attack on 'March for Unity' Convoy, Bagherhat Turns Into a Battlefield
Reports have emerged of an attack on the convoy of the anti-discrimination student movement's 'March for Unity' in Mollahat, Bagherhat. The incident occurred around 11:30 am on Tuesday (December 31) in Mollahat. It has been reported that 25 buses carrying students departed from Khulna Metropolitan City for Dhaka earlier in the morning. When the convoy reached the Madrasa Ghat area of Mollahat in Bagherhat, local assailants threw stones at the vehicles and stopped them, assaulting several people.  As the students retaliated, the area quickly turned into a battlefield. The clash lasted for an hour, with reports of at least 20 people injured. Police and military forces are working to bring the situation under control. The students stated that the attackers, who were already prepared, launched the assault as the convoy passed through Mollahat around 11:30 am. They also alleged that local residents supported the attackers. Despite the incident taking place near the police station, the students claimed the police remained inactive. Regarding the incident, Jahurul Tanvir, coordinator of the Anti-Discrimination Movement in Khulna, said, "Our convoy was peacefully heading to Dhaka from Khulna. Along the way, we were attacked, leaving many injured. This attack was orchestrated by collaborators of the fascist government." He further added, "The attack was premeditated. However, no obstacle can deter us from our goal. Our brothers have shed their blood. Justice must be served promptly, and those responsible must be brought to justice and given exemplary punishment. Otherwise, the students themselves will identify and take action against the perpetrators."

The Ministry of Home Affairs has temporarily suspended Sanjida Afrin, a former Additional Deputy Commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP), who is currently serving in the Armed Police Battalion (APBn). This decision was announced in a notification issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs on Sunday (December 29). The notification stated that Sanjida was suspended under government service regulations. During her suspension, she will remain attached to the Barisal Range and will receive subsistence allowance as per the rules. It has been reported that Detective Branch (DB) Inspector Jahangir Arif had prepared a final report clearing former Law Minister Anisul Huq, deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s former private sector advisor Salman F. Rahman, and former Director General of NTMC Major General (Retd.) Ziaul Ahsan in two murder cases related to a student-populace uprising. However, the matter became public before the report was submitted to the court. DB sources revealed that Jahangir claimed he acted under instructions from Sanjida Afrin. Following Jahangir's suspension, Sanjida has now also been temporarily suspended in connection with the case. Notably, Sanjida came under public scrutiny last year after an incident on the night of September 9, when two leaders of the Bangladesh Chhatra League and a leader of Dhaka University were detained and allegedly assaulted at Shahbagh Police Station.
