Tutul's death condoled


Bangladesh Football Federation, Sonali Otit Club, Brothers Union and Swadhinata Krira Sangha on Sunday condoled the death of former national footballer Mosharraf Hossain Tutul.

Tutul, who got a national call in 1995 and played for the second-string Bangladesh Greens, was killed in a road accident on Eid Day in the city.

The 38-year-old striker was at the peak of his form in 1995 when he led Bhola to win the National Football Championship in Naogaon. Tournament top-scorer Tutul then joined Abahani before fading away from the limelight due to repeated injuries. He also played for Brothers Union and Wari Club in the Premier League.

Swadhinata Krira Sangha will hold a milad mahfil today at Khilgaon Taltala City Super Market in memory of Tutul, who was founding vice-president of the organisation.
