Man killed over land dispute
A man was killed and at least six others were injured in a clash between two groups of villagers allegedly over a disputed land in Atghoria upazila on Friday night.
The deceased, Golap Pramanik, 40, was son of Abdul Pramanik of Joy-Krishnapur village.
Police, however, detained two people for their alleged involvement in the murder.
Quoting locals, police said there had been a longstanding rivalry between slain Golap and one Shahadat Ali of the village over the ownership of a piece of land.
As a sequel to the enmity, Shahadat and his men attacked Golap and his family members when they went to take possession of the disputed on Friday evening that left seven people, including Golap and his father, severely injured.
Injured Golap succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment at Pabna General Hospital the same night.
