Jubo League Activist Murder
Case filed after 11 years
Eleven years past his murder, family members of a Jubo League activist filed a murder case with Fatullah Police Station Friday night.
The victim, Md Masum Miah, was hacked to death in Fatullah of Narayanganj on October 10, 2001.
Masum's mother Rahima Begum, the complainant, stated the reason for the delay in filing the case had been her illness and the absence of a “convenient situation”.
After the case was filed, police arrested two persons, Selim alias Bolder Selim, 30, and Yasin, 33, from Lalpur area in this connection.
Masum used to run a shop in Dapa Balur Math area where he sold fuel. After the four-party alliance came to power, he started residing with his sister in Keraniganj, said Fatullah Police Station Officer-in-Charge Abdul Matin.
On the fateful day, he came to visit his in-laws at Kotalerbagh in Fatullah when some armed men forcibly took him to Dapa Balurghat area and hacked him to death. The body was dumped in Buriganga River, he said.
No one had been named as accused in the case statement, he added.
