Youth kills father for money to go abroad
A youth allegedly killed his father in Ghatail upazila as the latter could not give him money to go abroad.
The deceased was farmer Shukur Mahmud, 70, of Kaligapur village.
Police and locals said Shukur's son Rana Miah, 25, had been pressuring him for giving money to go abroad to get a job for very long, but Shukur failed to manage the money due to poverty.
Rana locked in an altercation with his father over the issue on Wednesday evening.
At one stage, he hacked his father, leaving him critically injured.
Shukur later died on way to Dhaka Medical College Hospital around 10:00pm.
Rana went into hiding soon after the incident, police said.
