Four more schoolboys held in Barisal
Four more schoolboys were arrested yesterday for hacking Hridoy, a tenth grader of Sahid Abdur Rab Serniabat Secondary School, to death over previous rivalry for proving supremacy, said police.
With the four, a total of six children, all SSC examinees of Govt Technical School, have been arrested in the case.
SM Ruhul Amin Police Commissioner of Barisal Metrapalitan Police (BMP) yesterday at a press conference said there had been a rivalry between the group of Hridoy and the one of the arrestees for long.
Recently, leader of the arrestees' group proposed the same girl whom Hridoy's friend used to like which indeed flared up the conflict between the two groups.
The two groups fought once before in last November as the arrestees teased a clerk of Hridoy's school, Ruhul added.
On Saturday morning before school hours, one of the arrestees was carrying in his schoolbag a knife that he bought with Tk 350 to intimidate another juvenile group of Durgasagor area which beat him some weeks ago.
But he used it to hack Syedur Rahman alias Hridoy Gazi, son of Md Ziaur Rahman Sahin of Pirojpur, as the latter along with his friends stormed into Paresh Sagor field and attacked the rival team with rods and sticks, said Ruhul adding that, the arrestee had admitted to the killing.
