Ctg-16 AL aspirant Mostafizur's candidacy cancelled

The Election Commission cancelled the candidacy of ruling Awami League candidate and current lawmaker from Chattogram-16 (Banshkhali) Mostafizur Rahman Chowdhury.

The action was taken because he threatened law enforcement officials, said EC Secretary Jahangir Alam.

According to the returning officer, if EC cancels the candidacy of a candidate, the election shall be held among the other contesting candidates of the concerned constituency.
