Police are yet to make any progress in solving the murder of Majharul Islam, a security guard who was slaughtered to death in Narayanganj’s Fatulla on September 4.
Rabia Begum, wife of the deceased and plaintiff of the murder case, alleged law enforcers of being negligent as the accused in the case were influential figures in the locality.
Rabia had accused a gang of criminals, who were also allegedly land-grabbers, of killing her husband for his refusal to work as a night-time security guard at the gang’s residence.
She claimed that her husband refused to work at the house as some criminals resided there and carried out immoral activities.
Her husband had left his job three days before the murder, but was forced to rejoin by a gang member named Nur Hossain, Rabia added.
A local resident, seeking anonymity, said the gang of Rokmot alias kaila Rokmot, Giasuddin alias dacoit Geshu, Nur Hossain, Amir Hossain, Yusuf Hossain alias dacoit Yusuf, were living in the house that Majharul guarded, which was allegedly built after the gang had forcibly occupied the land. Local union parishad Chairman Md Shawkat Ali also said the alleged criminals forcibly captured the land plot of one late Marfat Ali.
Investigation Officer of the case and Sub-Inspector of Fatulla model police station Md Wahiduzzaman said Nur Hossain, one of the accused, was interrogated under remand in two terms but no important clue was found.
Fatulla police recovered the slaughtered and tied-up body of Majharul on September 4, from the building where he worked in Nabinagar village.
