The eldest son of film actor ATM Shamsuzzaman was stabbed to death by his youngest brother in the capital's Sutrapur yesterday afternoon.
The deceased was identified as ATM Kamruzzaman Kabir, 35, also a reconditioned car trader.
Family sources said Khalequzzaman Kushal stabbed his brother Kabir in the back centring on an alteration over money around 2:30pm.
Mohammad Nazrul Islam, officer-in-charge of Sutrapur Police Station, said they arrested Kushal from his house.
Kabir's uncle Haji Solaiman told reporters that Kushal is a drug addict, and he has been suffering from mental illness.
He also said that Kushal often used to demand money from Kabir to buy drugs. As Kabir refused to give him any money this time, a brawl took place between the two.
At one stage, Kushal rushed to the kitchen and came out with a knife. Kushal then entered his eldest brother's room and stabbed Kabir indiscriminately, he added.
Kabir was rushed to Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) where doctors declared him dead around 4:20pm, family sources said.
Shovon, a cousin of the victim, said that family members tried a lot to restrain Kushal from buying drugs. He was even admitted to rehabilitation centres several times.
As family members stopped giving him any money, Kushal began to borrow from relatives and friends to buy drugs, he said adding that lenders also raised complaints to his brother Kabir as he did not pay them back in time.
Kabir even rebuked his brother several times over the matter and this might have triggered the killing, he alleged.
Kabir's body was kept at DMCH morgue for an autopsy.
