Miscreants killed a young man named Ashok Mondal (35) by slitting his throat at his house late at night in Kotalipara upazila of Gopalganj. The incident took place in Jathia village of the upazila on Sunday night. The murdered youth is the son of deceased Kalachand Mandal of Jathia village of Ashok Mandal upazila.
Ashok Mondal’s mother Urmila Mondal said, I fell asleep around 10 o’clock on the night of the incident. At that time I saw my elder son Ashok and younger son Asim Mandal watching TV. Then suddenly I was woken up by the scream of the little boy Asim Mandal. At that time, my little son Asim was screaming holding the body of Ashok on the balcony of the house. We then left for Ashok to take him to the hospital and he died as soon as he left the room.
Harichand Mondal, businessman of Tarashi village, said, Ashok Mondal is my cousin. He was a simple man. As far as I know he has no sex.
Kotalipara Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Muhammad Feroz Alam said, We have started an investigation into the murder of Ashok Mandal. Hopefully we will be able to find out the real reason for this murder very soon.
Meanwhile, Ashok Mondal’s body has been sent to Gopalganj morgue for post-mortem, said the police officer.
