Bangladesh: Jamuna Group chairman Nurul Islam Babul threatens Petrobangla chairman


Petrobangla chairman Hossain Monsur said that Jamuna Group chairman Nurul Islam Babul on Tuesday warned him of dire consequence saying that he was creating obstacles in providing new gas connection to Jamuna Future Park.
‘Nurul Islam Babul warned me and the prime minister’s immediate past energy adviser Tawfiq-E-Elahi Chowdhury of dire consequences as Petrobangla did not provide gas connection to Jamuna Future Park,’ Hossain Monsur told New Age.
Babul, however, denied the allegation saying, ‘All of them are corrupt. What can I do if newspapers publish reports on their corruptions?’ 
He also said, ‘Why would I threat them? I do not run daily Jugantor.’
Daily Jugantor is a Bangla daily published by Babul’s wife Salma Islam, who was appointed a state minister on November 18.
Monsur said that the consumers of a vast area including Banasri, Gulshan and Baridhara would not get gas supply if Petrobangla or its distribution utility provided gas supply to Jamuna Future Park in the capital. (source
