Seven injured in violent clash at Natore bus terminal

NATORE, June 22 (UNB): Seven people were injured early Saturday in a violent clash over "establishing supremacy" at the Natore Bus Terminal, causing a four-hour suspension of bus services.

Ehia Chowdhury, General Secretary of the Natore Bus Owners Association, reported an altercation erupted at around 11:00 pm between the owner of the Dhaka-bound bus 'Rajokio Paribahan' and other bus owners over maintaining bus departure order.

The dispute escalated when a group led by Khoka, manager of 'Rajokio Paribahan,' stormed the terminal. They opened fire, injuring a worker named Subel, 26, with bullets, said Ehia.
