police recovered the bullet-riddled bodies of two BNP men in Sadar upazila of Laxmipur yesterday morning.
A Jamaat activist, who suffered bullet wounds during Sunday's clash between Jamaat men and law enforcers in Joypurhat, died at a private hospital in the capital early yesterday.
Unlike the previous blockades, there was not much violence yesterday except for some stray incidents of crude bomb kabooms and vandalism in some districts.
