Vandals damage Bangabandhu's sculpture in Kushtia

Miscreants vandalised the sculpture of Bangabandhu at Panch Rastar Morh area in Kushtia on Friday night (December 4).

According to Kushtia Municipality sources, it was decided in November that three sculptures of Bangabandhu at the intersection of Panch Rasta of the town will be erected with the municipality's funds.

Work started on November 17 and a part of it was already finished but some miscreants vandalised various parts and broke them off.
