It has been alleged that an armed attack was carried out against an internet service provider in the Çatgam (Chittagong) city of Bangladesh, with a demand for a 20 million Taka (approximately 2 crore) bribe/extortion payment, and that 3.5 million Taka was plundered. Following the incident, a threatening phone call made to the business owner, Adil bin Mamun, by an individual using the name 'David Emon' has emerged.
During the phone call, David Emon openly threatened the business owner, stating that because they had been doing business for 17-18 years, it was now their turn. Claiming that they had been struggling with 17-18 murder cases since August 5, Emon advised the operator to ask the police commissioner about them and to learn how they 'coordinated' with businesses in other regions.
The victimized business owner stated that he received a call from a foreign number on Saturday demanding a monthly payment of 1 million Taka, and upon refusing, his workplace was attacked. An official criminal complaint has been filed regarding the incident at the Çakbazar (Chawkbazar) police station.
