According to the FIR of the case, on the morning of last October 1, due to the rush of passengers on a Biman Bangladesh Airlines flight arriving from Medina, a shortage of trolleys occurred in the area of luggage belt No. 8 at the airport. This caused tension among passengers due to the delay in getting luggage.

When the airport's executive director, Group Captain S M Ragib Samad, went to the scene to control the situation, Akhtaruzzaman insulted and threatened him, the FIR alleged. Later, when the protocol assistants accompanying him recorded video in a restricted area, security officers stopped them.
