Bangla Press Desk: Gazipur appears to be turning into a crime hotspot, with murders, muggings, robberies and extortion now a daily occurrence — often in broad daylight — leaving residents in fear.
On Friday morning, police recovered a headless, dismembered body stuffed into two travel bags on Tongi Station Road. The victim was identified through fingerprints as Oli Mia, 37, son of Suruj Mia of Komirpur village in Narsingdi Sadar. Oli, a bus helper of Azmeri Paribahan, was killed about two days ago, police suspect. His head is yet to be found.
On Thursday night, journalist Asaduzzaman Tuhin was hacked and slaughtered in broad daylight at Chandna Chowrasta. Police believe he was targeted for recording a video of an assault. Four suspects have been arrested in connection with the killing, Gazipur Metropolitan Police (GMP) officials said.
DC (Crime–North) Md Robiul Hasan said CCTV footage led investigators to the suspects — known snatcher Ketu Mizan and his wife Golapi were detained in Salna, Al Amin in Turag, and Swadhin in Bhabanipur.
