1. Multiple Lawsuits: Former Minister Meher Afroz Chumki, along with 114 other Awami League members, faces three separate lawsuits in Kaliganj, Gazipur. The cases involve accusations of murder, assault, and theft.

2. Assault During Protest: On August 4, 2023, Chumki allegedly ordered an attack on a protester, Ismail Hossain, during a student movement. The attack resulted in severe injuries to Hossain, leading to a case against Chumki and other Awami League members for assault and threats.

3. Violence Against BNP Workers: In 2011, Chumki was accused of orchestrating violence against BNP workers traveling to a conference via boat. The attackers, armed with sharp weapons, stopped the boat, leading to injuries and the disappearance of two BNP workers, whose bodies were later recovered.

4. Additional Accusations: Another case involves charges against Chumki and her associates for premeditated violence and threats involving weapons. The accusations stem from a confrontation where several people were reportedly assaulted.

5. Political Context: Despite these allegations, Chumki has been nominated as a reserved seat MP for women by the Awami League, continuing her political career despite a loss in the recent parliamentary elections.
