N'ganj 7-murder accused ex-Rab man Tareque shifted to DMCH

Sacked Rab official Tareque Sayeed, who is an accused in the Narayanganj seven-murder case, was shifted to Dhaka Medical College Hospital from Dhaka Central Jail as he felt pain in the legs, waist, and spinal cord yesterday, sources said.

Sources at Dhaka Central Jail said Tareque, who was held in May, 2014, had been feeling pain while walking in recent days.

On April 27, 2014, Narayanganj panel mayor Nazrul Islam, his four associates, and senior lawyer Chandan Sarker and his driver were abducted. Their bodies were later found floating in the Shitalakkhya river. Three Rab officials -- Tareque, Arif Hossain and SM Masud Rana -- were sacked later following the murder.
