Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Public Relations Officer Maqbul Hossain was stabbed by miscreants. He was taken to a hospital in Gulshan in the capital in a serious condition and is undergoing treatment there.

The incident took place at around 8:45 pm on Tuesday (January 7) in front of the old office of the DNCC Revenue Department on Road No. 90 in Gulshan.

It is learned that Maqbul Hossain and some other officials of Dhaka North City were playing badminton on the badminton court at the old office of the Revenue Department on Road No. 90.

After a while, Maqbul Hossain called out to everyone in his injured condition, and others went to rescue him and took him to the hospital.

DNCC Executive Magistrate Shahidul Islam said that doctors said that for now, medicine and treatment have been given to stop the bleeding. He will undergo surgery on Wednesday morning to find out if there are any major injuries anywhere on the body or if a blood vessel has been cut. He has stab wounds below his right shoulder, below the elbow on his right arm, and in three places on his chest.
