A section of protesters from a rally of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement in Chattogram allegedly attacked the residence of Education Minister Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury on Saturday.

Two cars were vandalised, one was set on fire, and some furniture were also vandalised during the attack on his house around 6:30 pm in the city’s Chashma Hill area in Sholoshahar, according to witnesses.
