Sujan Leader Found Dead with Hands and Legs Tied in Gazipur; Murder Case Filed

Police have recovered the body of Md. Kamruzzaman Molla (65), Vice President of the Gazipur branch of Shushashoner Jonno Nagorik (Sujan), with his hands and legs tied in Gazipur city. A murder case was filed on Thursday by the victim’s son, Kaushik Zaman.

According to police, the body was recovered late Wednesday night from the Purbo Dhirashram area under Sadar Metro Police Station in Gazipur Metropolitan City.

Kamruzzaman Molla was the son of Idris Ali from the Gazipura area of Ward No. 50 in the city. Besides serving as the vice president of Sujan’s Gazipur branch, he was also involved in contracting business.

Family members and police sources said that on Wednesday (March 4) at around 7:00 am, Kamruzzaman Molla left his house to inquire about a case at the Gazipur court. After finishing court proceedings, he left his lawyer’s chamber but did not return home.

When he did not return even late at night, family members began searching for him. Around 2:00 am, they were informed by police that his body had been recovered.

Police and local residents said that miscreants allegedly tied his hands and legs and strangled him to death before dumping the body beside a road in the Dhirashram area under Gazipur Sadar Metro Police Station.

Local residents spotted the body lying beside the road at night and informed the police. The police then recovered the body and sent it to the morgue of Shaheed Tajuddin Ahmad Medical College Hospital for autopsy.

The victim’s younger brother, Kabirul Islam, said, “As far as we know, he did not have any conflict with anyone. However, there might have been disputes related to business transactions.”

Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Gazipur Sadar Police Station, Aminul Islam, said that preliminary investigation suggests he might have been strangled to death due to previous enmity. The exact cause of death will be confirmed after receiving the autopsy report.

He added that the body has already been handed over to the family after the autopsy, and police are working to identify and arrest those involved in the murder.
