Tortured youth found dead in UP office
Police recovered the body of a youth from inside Magura Union Parishad (UP) office in Nilphamari's Kishoreganj upazila early yesterday.
The deceased is Al-Amin, 35, son of Azizur Rahman of Borovita village.
Quoting deceased's family members, Officer-in-Charge (OC) Bazlur Rashid of Kishoreganj Police Station said Al-Amin's in-laws mercilessly tortured him when he went to their house to meet his wife on Tuesday night.
Locals, however, informed the police that after torturing him severely, Al-Amin's in-laws handed him over to Magura UP Chairman Mahmudul Hasan Shihab, who ordered his men to confine the youth at the chairman's office.
Later around 4:00am, the UP chairman phoned the OC and informed him that Al-Amin committed suicide by hanging himself inside the office.
The deceased's father Azizur Rahman alleged that his son died due to the barbaric torture by his in-laws.
