A young man was killed and four others were injured in an attack reportedly by members of a teen gang in the city’s Agrabad area on Wednesday.
The deceased was identified as Mohammad Hashem, 33, a resident of Rangipara in Halishahar area of the city.
Mohammad Mohsin, officer-in-charge of Double Mooring Police Station, said some members of ‘Agrabad Easter Boys Club’ had brought out a cycle rally in the city’s Agrabad area around 12;30 pm, which led to traffic congestion in the area.
Hashem, who got stuck in the traffic jam, protested the matter.
At one stage, an altercation ensued between the teenage boys and Hashem over the issue.
Later, the members of the teen gang attacked Hashem, leaving him dead on the spot, said the OC.
Police have arrested 24 people in this connection.
