The United States embassy in Dhaka in a statement on Friday expressed their hope that the reported attack on entrepreneur Mahinur Ahmed Khan would be thoroughly investigated and the perpetrators would be brought to justice.
‘The U.S. Embassy is aware of reports that Mahinur Ahmed Khan, brother of UK-based journalist Zulkarnain Saer Khan Sami, was attacked in front of his home in Mirpur last week. We wish Mr. Khan a speedy recovery, and we hope the case is thoroughly investigated and the perpetrators brought to justice,’ said acting US Embassy spokesperson Bryan Schiller in the statement.
Mahinur came under attack at about 8:00pm on March 17 when he went out to buy some essential items from a shop opposite his house at Mirpur in Bangladesh capital Dhaka, his wife Rubyda Rakhee said on Thursday.
