They tied the hands and legs of the AL leader who was taking rest at his bedroom on the first floor of the house after returning from the party office. They hacked him to death and escaped through the main gate in presence of security guards Makbul and Tufani. Police arrested the two security guards. The murderers disconnected the telephone line and ransacked Zaman's bedroom, police added. Khulna City Corporation Mayor Talukder Abdul Khaleque and AL leaders visited the spot.
