Meanwhile, the bullet riddled body of Chauddagram upazila Shibir President was found at Comilla Medical College Hospital morgue yesterday morning, adds our Comilla correspondent.
The victim was identified as Sahab Patwari, 25. Shahab’s mother Sakina Begum said members of police picked him up from his Chandishkora house around 5:10pm on Thursday.

In Satkhira, a local leader of Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) sustained bullet injures in a gunfight between his cohorts and police at Kazirhat Thakurbari in Kalaroa upaizla early yesterday.
The victim was identified as Abdul Mazid, 30, president of Kalaroa municipality unit of JCD. He was an accused in a case filed for attack on convoy of the then opposition leader Sheikh Hasina in Kalaroa on August 30, 2002.
Assistant Superintendent of Satkhira Sadar Circle Police, Anwar Syed, said, “The police, sensing sabotage, challenged a group of criminals in the area around 1.00am. At one stage, the criminals opened fire at the law enforcers, prompting them to retaliate, triggering a gunfight. Abdul Majid sustained bullet injuries on the left knee.”
“Police arrested him while the others managed to flee. He was rushed to sadar hospital. Later, police recovered one shutter gun and five rounds of bullet from the spot,” he said.
On August 30 in 2002, Sheikh Hasina, the then opposition leader, had gone to the district to visit a raped housewife. On the way, the miscreants allegedly attacked her convoy on the instruction of the then lawmaker Habibul Islam Habib in Kalaroa, the police said.
The attackers fired gunshots to kill Hasina but she survived the assassination attempt while others accompanying her sustained injuries. Moslem Uddin, the then general secretary of Kalaroa upazila unit Awami League, filed a case in this connection.
Abdul Majid was an FIR accused in the case. He had long been on the run after the incident. He was wanted in several criminal cases, according to the police.
