CJP Volunteer's Father Dies After Alleged Bengal Attack
A young man named Shaik Abdul Hafeez volunteers with a group called CJP that works to make things better and fair for people.
His task was to visit government schools and check what problems they had.
On August 13, he inspected a school in his own village and made notes about what needed fixing.
That same evening, some bad people reportedly came to his house and attacked his family.
His father, Janab Mafik, got a very serious injury to his head.
Sadly, his father passed away on Saturday because of the injury.
A leader from the group, named Dipke, said the attackers were probably connected to a political party called the BJP.
The killing has been described as an allegation, and not everything has been proven yet.
Dipke also said that even if they are attacked, the group will keep working even harder.
Shaik Abdul Hafeez, a 25-year-old CJP volunteer, took part in the 'School Thik Karo' campaign inspecting government schools.
On August 13, Hafeez inspected a government school in his village in the Karisunda area of Bankura district.
That evening, goons allegedly forced their way into his family's home, according to CJP's Dipke.
Hafeez's father, Janab Mafik, suffered severe head injuries in the assault and died on Saturday.
Dipke claimed the attackers were likely associated with the BJP and said, 'Attack Us, We'll Fight Harder.'
