Sheltech executive shot dead in city
Armed assailants shot dead an executive of a real estate company at Lalmatia in the city yesterday.
The victim identified as Khandaker Masud Parvez alias Rana, 29, used to look after the land procurement process of the company.
Rana, an executive of Sheltech and a drama artiste, went to Lalmatia area with his colleague Mahfuz to talk to a landowner for buying a piece of land for the company.
Keeping the driver and Mahfuz in the car, Rana was searching the house of the landowner in an alley in BlockE around 12:00noon.
Few minutes later, a construction labourer working in a nearby building came and informed Mahfuz that his colleague is lying with bullet injuries on a road, around 200 yards off the vehicle.
Later, Mahfuz and their driver ran to the spot and rushed him to Square Hospital at Panthapath where doctors declared him dead.
Rana was shot in his knee and abdomen.
Officer-in-Charge of Mohammadpur Police Station said nobody could tell the name of the assailants or how he was killed.
A relative of Rana quoting construction labourers said hearing three to four gunshots they ran to the spot and found two to three persons running away.
The relative alleged that Rana was killed as a sequel to a dispute with Sheltech over procurement of land. They said Rana, a bachelor, had no enmity with anyone.
Rana joined Sheltech two years ago after completing his MBA from Stamford University.
He performed in several plays since joining Prangone More five years ago.
