Chittagong, Sep 11 (bdnews24.com)—Miscreants at Gosaildanga in Chittagong rampaged a Hindu temple, the police say.

Eyewitnesses said some six youths led by one Mohammad Masud of the adjacent Muslim-dominated area stormed the temple in the port city around 10:45pm by breaking iron gate and wooden doors.

They smashed several idols including those of Lord Narayana, Shivalinga and Ghaut, and utensils there.

Thousands of Hindus of the area took out a procession demanding arrest and punishment of those responsible.

Mihir Das, joint general secretary of Gosaildanga Shwashan Kalibari Temple Committee, told bdnews24.com: "Five to six drunken youths led by gangster Masud of the neighbouring area vandalised the temple."

Bandar Police Station officer-in-charge Rejaul Karim and local ward councillor Jahangir Alam Chowdhury went to the scene hearing of the incident.

The police official told bdnews24.com measures will be taken against those guilty.
