Muggers kill fish trader

3 hurt as extortionists open fire at construction site

Staff Correspondent
Muggers yesterday hacked to death a fish vendor in the capital's Jatrabari while extortionists shot injured two people at Shyampur and lootedTk 25 lakh from them.
Dead Noor Islam, 45, of Brahmanbaria, used to live in a mess at Uttar Jatrabari.
Abani Shankar Kar, inspector of Jatrabari Police Station, said unidentified criminals stabbed Noor in the throat near his mess around 5:30am when he was going to buy fish.
The criminals took his money and cell phone away, Abani said quoting Noor's roommates. The amount of the money, however, could not be known.
Those injured in the Shyampur incident are Didarul Islam and Ohidul Islam, employees of NPC Distributor Ltd, an agency of Banglalink.
Amzad Hossain, manager of the agency, said a gang of six on three motorbikes went to the company's Dholaipar office and opened fire on Didarul and Ohidul when they were getting on a car around 10:30am.
The criminals snatched the briefcase containing the money and fled the scene, he said. The two were going to deposit the money in the bank.
Meanwhile, three people including a teenage boy were injured as criminals opened fire at a construction site at Gendaria in the city yesterday.
Injured Md Jahid, 35, caretaker of the underconstruction building, and Wasa employee Ali Azim, 38, were admitted to Dhaka Medical College Hospital while Md Sohel, 14, was taken to a local clinic.
Condition of Jahid and Azim was stated to be critical.
A group of two extortionists entered the site at about 2:00pm and opened fire on the Jahid. Later, they shot Azim, who went to monitor the construction work. Sohel, the teenage boy, was hit in the leg by a stray bullet.
Iqbal Khan, owner of the building, told The Daily Star that one Emon had been demanding Tk 10 lakh in extortion.
“He [Emon] even threatened to kill me if I don't give him the money,” said Iqbal.
Faruk Ahmed, officer-in-charge of Gendaria Police Station, said the incident might have taken place over collecting extortion.
