Meanwhile, Zakir threatened Ahmad and said that he will kill all the fishes in your area with poison tablets within 2/1 days. Because of this, Zakir Hossain's leadership led by Hazrat Ali's son Bilal Hossain and Wahab's son Shariful Islam Sharif of the same village killed all the fishes in the enclosure of Ahmed Ali with poison tablets. Before this, Zakir had poisoned the fish in Ahmed's enclosure several times. As he was influential, Ahmad Ali went door-to-door to every community but nothing was done. Mamun Khan, officer-in-charge of Sharsha police station, said, "We have received the complaint, we will investigate the matter and take action according to the law."
