209 tons of LP gas imported by the Union LP Gas Limited of Mongla (Bangladesh) have been unloaded after a tug of war between the importer and the Customs authority. The environmentalists groups of Khulna and Bagerhat protested the import of gas saying that it was harmful to mankind and it might cause accident.
