IUB student found 'killed'
Police yesterday recovered the decomposed body of a private university student with stab marks from his own room in the capital's Adabor area.
Shihabul Islam Shihab, 25, a student of BBA department at Independent University Bangladesh (IUB), lived with his family at Prominent Housing Apartment in Adabor.
After getting a call from his family, police recovered Shihab's body at 2:00pm that bore some stab marks, Biplab Kumar Sarkar, deputy commissioner (DC) of Tejgaon Division, told The Daily Star.
“Shihab was a drug addict, and used to misbehave with family members. He used to stay at home all day, go out in the evening and come back late at night,” the DC said. On Friday evening, when family members came back from Madaripur, Shihab's room was found locked. They did not knock the door thinking that he was inside, he said.
But yesterday morning, when Shihab was not responding, they broke the door and discovered him dead, the DC added.
Masud Hossain, one of Shihab's neighbours, said Shihab used to hang out with friends in their apartment. He might have been killed by his friends, Masud added.
