Witnesses said Kajol and his friend Pear Ali were resetting their bi-cycle chain beside the road.

A microbus at the end of the motorcade hit them. The witnesses said the bi-cycle got entangled with the rear bumper of the vehicle but it did not stop. A rickshaw van puller Akbar Ali and teenager Moni took Kajol to Dimla upazila health complex in a critical condition. As his condition deteriorated, he was shifted to Rangpur Medical College Hospital where he died the same night.
