No one is safe here

No one is safe here

The dreadful abduction and subsequent killing of seven people in Narayanganj have proved that it is equally dangerous for people who by chance witness any incident of abduction. In the Narayanganj incident, innocent people like Liton, Jahangir, Tajul and advocate Chandan were victimized only because they happened to be present at the abduction scene. The perpetrators did not spare them for witnessing the crimes. Maybe this seven-murder would not have happened, had the government taken stern action in Toki murder case. The alarming rise in abductions only proves that no one is safe here, whether he or she is a multimillionaire or an ordinary person. God knows who the next prey of this horrendous game is.
