Alongside enquiring about their treatment, he offered prayers for the speedy recovery of the injured.

Later, in a video message, Aminul Islam strongly condemned and protested the attack on labour leader Taslim Uddin. He also expressed concern over the country's law and order situation.
Aminul Islam alleged that the administration has not been able to arrest anyone involved in the attack. He also pointed to negligence in police patrol activities to ensure public safety at night.
He said, 'Ensuring the safety of people's lives and property is one of the administration's main responsibilities. Yet incidents like miscreant attacks in the darkness of night are creating anxiety and insecurity among the public.' He called on the administration concerned to take swift and effective steps in this regard.
