Staff Correspondent, Sylhet
Sylhet police arrested four students of Fatehpur Madrasa in Sadar upazila early Sunday in connection with the killing of an 11-year boy of the same madrasa. The arrestees are Sarwar Alam, 18, Asaduzzaman, 17, Mujibur Rahman, 17 and Layek Miah, 18. The victim Belal Hossain, a student of class six, went to join a Waj Mehfil in the madrasa on Saturday night and never returned home. Later locals learned Sarwar had called him out of the Waj Mehfil on that night. They also found Belal's ID card with him and suspecting his involvement in Belal's disappearance they handed him over to the police. Sarwar confessed to police that he along with the three had hacked the boy to death and then dumped the body into a septic tank early Sunday. Police recovered the body and sent it to the Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College morgue for an autopsy. The arrestees confessed before a magistrate yesterday afternoon.
