UNB, Munshiganj :
Confessing to his part in the killing of North South University (NSU) student Md Saidur Rahman Payel, a supervisor of ‘Hanif Paribahan’ gave a spine-chilling narration of the incident before a court here on Wednesday. Senior Judicial Magistrate M Jasim Uddin recorded the confessional statement of Mohammad Jony in the afternoon, said court police inspector Hedayetullah Islam Bhuiyan and officer-in-charge of Gazaria Police Station Harunur Rashid. Payel, a 5th semester NSU student and son of Golam Mawla of Halishahar in the port city of Chattogram, was found dead in a canal at Bhaterchar in Gazaria upazila on Monday. In his confessional statement, Jony told the court that the Dhaka-bound bus from Chattogram was caught in a tailback at Bahterchar on Dhaka-Chattogram highway in the early hours of Saturday. At that time, Payel got down from the bus to respond to the call of nature. As the bus started moving when the traffic jam eased, Payel started running to catch the bus. At one stage, the driver stopped the bus. However, the university student got his head smashed with the auto gate
and fell onto the road. He fell unconscious as his mouth and nose were bleeding profusely.
Later, the supervisor told the matter to the bus driver and after a discussion, they along with the bus helper threw Payel into the canal from a nearby bridge around 4:30am while he was still alive.
