Jubo League man shot dead
A Jubo League activist was shot dead by unknown assailants near airport in the town last night.
Witnesses and police said Zafar Sheikh, 38, was returning home on foot at about 8:00pm when the assailants riding a motorbike intercepted him.
The miscreants fired at his chest and fled the scene.
Locals rushed Zafar to a hospital where doctors declared him dead.
Kotwali thana officer Moazzem Hossain said Zafar was accused in a case of attempt to murder of local Jubo League leader Dhole.
Zafar was an extortionist and his murder might be a sequel to a dispute over share of the extortion money, locals alleged.
