Ferdousi Priyabhashini receives death threat

The police launched an inquiry after anonymous caller on Saturday threatened sculptor Ferdousi Priyabhashini with ‘dire consequences’ within 48 hours.
‘We have talked to her and are tracking for the number,’ said Dhaka Metropolitan Police Dhanmondi zone assistant commissioner Rezaul Karim.
He said measures were taken for her security.
Earlier, rights campaigner Ferdousi Priyabhashini alleged that she received death threat over phone from an unknown caller Saturday afternoon.
She told the media, ‘I got several calls from an unknown number, but I could not take those calls. Later, my son got a call from the same number.’
‘When he answered the call, the caller said “You will meet the same fate as Niladri”,’ she said, adding, ‘Maybe they meant to threaten me.’
Blogger Niladri Chattopadhyay Niloy was hacked to death by assailants at his rented house in the capital Dhaka on Friday.
She would file a general diary in this regard, the police said.
