Three people, including a child, have died in road accidents in Munshiganj and Jessore.
In Munshiganj, two persons were killed and another man was injured after being hit by a Dhaka-bound bus in the Jomaldi terminal area of Gazaria early Friday morning. The deceased were identified as Ismail Hossain, 35, son of Ali Mia, and Abul Kalam Mollah, 26, son of Muslim Mollah.
In-charge of Bhaberchar Highway police outpost, Md Salah Uddin said the accident occurred when the three were waiting for a bus at the terminal.
“The driver lost control over the vehicle and rammed the trio. While two died on the spot, the injured has been admitted to a nearby hospital,” the officer said. Police have seized the bus, but its driver is absconding. “Efforts are on to nab him,” he said.
In Jessore, a ten-year-old boy was killed after he was run over by a sand-laden tractor-trolley at Rahman intersection in Monirampur upazila Friday morning.
The deceased Sulaiman Hossain, son of Siddiqur Rahman of Mohonpur area, was a student at a local madrasa in the municipality.
Locals rescued Sulaiman to the nearest hospital but he was declared dead on arrival.
Mizanur Rahman, a physician at the emergency department of Monirampur hospital, said the child died before he could be brought to the hospital.
Monirampur police station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Rafiqul Islam said: “We did not receive any formal complaints so the body of the child has been handed over to his family without a post-mortem.”
