BNP leader hacked to death in Narsingdi

A BNP leader was hacked to death in Narsingdi's Kath Bazar area on Wednesday night.

Sujith Sutradhar, 55, a carpenter by profession, was a former vice president of Hazipur union unit BNP and a former member at ward-2 of the same union.

Two others -- Sujon Sutradhar, 30, the victim's son, and their employee Dina, 55 -- were injured during the attack. They received primary treatment.

According to Sujon, some 10-12 men, led by Hazipur Union Parishad Chairman Yosuf Khan Pinto's brother Monir Hossain, attacked them with sharp weapons over previous enmity.

Kazi Ashraful Islam Azim, superintendent of Narsingdi police, claimed an ex-employee Masum Mia and his fellow men carried out the attack.
