Three murdered

Three people were found murdered in Netrakona, Chapainawabganj and Jessore.

Police recovered the body of a quack, known as village doctor, from the Betai river in Netrakona's Mohanganj upazila yesterday, three days after he went missing.

The deceased was Kazi Mujibur Rahman, 45, of Jalalpur village in the upazila, reports our Mymensingh correspondent.

Ansari Zinnat Ali, officer-in-charge of Mohanganj Police Station, said Mujibur used to run a medicine store at Joinpur Bazar.

On Monday, Mujibur informed his wife that he would not return home as he would visit his in-laws' house near the bazar and since then he went missing.

Informed by locals, the law enforcers recovered the body, which bore injury marks, from the river yesterday morning. 

Criminals might have killed Mujibur, the OC said, adding that nine people were detained for interrogation.

Meanwhile, the body of a teenage boy was found hanging from a tree at a mango orchard at Baliadanga village in Chapainawabganj Sadar upazila the same day.

The victim was Masum, 19, son of Golam Kabir of the village, reports our correspondent.

Locals found Masum's body with his hands and legs tied with ropes, said Saber Reza Ahmed, officer-in-charge of Sadar Police Station.

Police primarily suspect that criminals killed the boy and later hung the body from the tree.

In Jessore, an unidentified man was found dead in a fish enclosure in Monirampur upazila on Tuesday night, reports our Benapole correspondent.

He might have been killed by a gang, said police.
