Reckless driving claims 3 more lives

Staff Correspondent
A recklessly driven passenger bus yesterday stopped a father from delivering his last words of advice to his HSC examinee son.
Sheikh Abdul Shahid was rushing to Tejgaon College to give advice and encouragement to his son before he entered the examination centre, when a bus crushed him to death near Farmgate Police Box around 9:15am.
Meanwhile, two businessmen were killed early yesterday when a sand-loaded truck hit a rickshaw that was carrying them in the capital's Shantinagar. The rickshaw-puller was critically injured in the incident. FROM PAGE 20
Family sources said Shahid, a driver of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics, went to his office in the morning from his Staff Quarter residence in Agargaon.
Before leaving, he asked his son Sheikh Abdul Sazzad and wife Rozi Begum to go to the examination centre. Shahid assured his son that he would see him before Sazzad entered at 9:30am.
Family members said Sazzad was a brilliant student who achieved GPA-5 in the SSC examinations and Shahid always took an interest in his son's education. He had a dream to his son as a doctor.
Sazzad appeared for the HSC examinations from BAF Shaheen School & College.
“After dropping his boss at the office, Shahid rushed to the centre with the jeep he drives. He parked the vehicle at Department of Agricultural Extension and started walking to reach his destination,” Sheikh Abdul Wahid, the victim's brother, told The Daily Star.
As he was crossing the road adjacent to Farmgate park, the bus ran over him.
Locals caught the driver and handed him over to the police who also seized the bus running on Mohammadpur-Chittagongroute.
“I saw around seven people attempting to cross the road but when the bus came they all retreated and I decided to drive on. I did not notice that one of them was in front of the bus,” said Abdul Hye, sub-inspector Tejgaon Police Station, quoting the detained driver Alai Mian.
In the other incident, two friends --Rabiul Islam Jadu, 32, owner of HR Printers and Moinul Islam Dolon, 30, who owns Multi Printers — were killed as the truck hit their rickshaw around 1:30am.
Because of work pressure they were returning home late, said Lokman Hossain, brother of Rabiul.
After work, Rabiul hired the rickshaw from Fakirerpool Water Tank to Nandipara.
As the rickshaw reached near Karnaphuli Garden City, the truck hit the rickshaw from behind leaving the two dead on the spot.
Locals rushed the wounded rickshaw-puller Alauddin to Dhaka Medical College Hospital. He remained unconscious till the time of filing of this report.
Police with help from locals seized the bus and arrested the driver.
