Injured father yet to know fate of his son
Bibhuti Ranjan Das, father of Shuvo who was drowned during a robbery at Gendaria on Saturday, is yet to know that the drug addict neighbour drowned his minor son.
Ranjan with stab injuries at Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) kept saying, “Bring my son to the hospital for treatment with me. My son even did not take breakfast in that morning when Sagar snatched my son from my room. I fetched him from his school around 10:30am when Sagar took him away around 10:45am.”
Drug addict Shakil alias Sagar allegedly drowned 10-year-old Dipto Das Shuvo, the first boy at class-IV, in a water drum and stabbed his father Ranjan at their house.
The body of Shuvo was released yesterday from DMCH where doctors declared him dead.
Ranjan told the reporter that Sagar tried to kill them over a past enmity and then to loot his belongings.
“Sagar's mother had a quarrel with my wife on June 23, 2009 over entering my house and since then a hostile relation developed between the two families that led to the incident,” he said.
“Sagar entered my house just few minutes after I with my son reached there,” he said adding, “At my bed room taking my son at his grip, Sagar wielded a pistol and a knife asked me to lie on my bed to tie my hands and legs to the bed.”
He said at that moment Sagar's four cohorts also entered the room but he could not identify them, adding, immediately they took out Shuvo of the room and reappeared again and asked for the keys to the locker.
He added the gang took around Tk 30,000 from the locker and then all on a sudden Sagar reentered the room and started stabbing him.
“As I lost all hopes of surviving and feared that they will also kill my son I got violent, raised screaming and managed to free my legs, at this Sagar got scared and fled,” he said adding that locals later rescued him.
SI of Gendaria Police Station Subash Paul said Sagar is a drug addict and beyond control of his parents.
