Jubo League man hacked to death in Ctg

A Jubo League activist was hacked to death allegedly by his rivals in the youth front of Awami League in Swandip upazila of Chittagong on Wednesday night.

Bashir Ahmed, 38, a member of Moghdora Union unit of Jubo League, succumbed to his injuries at a Swandip hospital.

Around 20 persons led by the upazila Jubo League member Rahman Hujur attacked Bashir with sharp weapons while he was sitting near his Noyahat house in the union, said police and locals.

Swandip Police Station Officer-in-Charge Abdus Salam said a long standing feud between a leader of Swandip Thana AL, and a former AL leader over establishing supremacy in the area led to the murder.

Bashir is an associate of the ex-AL leader while Rahman is loyal to the other, he said.

Rahman is on the run, he said.
