| [Bangla Daily Star] A Bangladesh Chhatra League ... the student wing of the Bangla Awami League ... (BCL) leader and another man were found dead early yesterday in capital's Tejgaon Industrial Area, three days after they went missing. The dear departed are Mizanur Rahman, 32, Tejgaon unit joint convener of BCL and Akbar Ali, 50, a boutique worker at Mirpur. Police found the bodies lying on the roadside with their hands tied up with ropes at Tejgaon Truck Stand at around 3:00am. Family members of Mizan claimed he was a presidential candidate of the same unit in BCL's upcoming committee. He was also a contractor of WASA and traded fruits and scrap garment at Tejgaon Railway Market. However, ars longa, vita brevis... neither police nor the family members of the dear departed could ascertain the relationship between Mizan and Akbar. Mizan called his wife, Orni around 1:30pm on Wednesday and told her that he was in grave danger, said Tajul Islam, Mizan's brother. Later his cell phone was found unreachable and Orni filed a General Diary (GD) that night with Tejgaon Industrial Police Station in this connection, said Tajul. Family members suspect he was killed over a business feud. "He had a feud with some people at a garment factory at Tejturi Bazar over his scrap garment business a year ago, who had injured him seriously," Yasin Hossain, a nephew of Mizan told The Daily Star. Mizan was admitted to the hospital with a bullet injury and stab wounds after the attack, Yasin added. |
