Airport Road crash: Case filed over the death of 2 college students

A case was filed in connection with the death of two college students in a road accident on Airport road on Sunday.

Jahangir Alam, father of Diya Khanam Mim, who died in the road accident, filed the case against the unidentified driver with Cantonment Police Station on Sunday night, said Gazi Shahan Haq, officer-in-charge of Cantonment Police Station.

Earlier on Sunday, Diya Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib, first year students of Shaheed Ramiz Uddin Cantonment College, were killed as a bus ploughed through some students in front of Kurmitola General Hospital on Airport Road in the capital.

Angered by the tragic incident, the students of the college took to the streets and put up barricades on both sides of the road, disrupting traffic from 1 pm to 1:45 pm.

They also vandalised several vehicles and set fire to two buses, including the killer one.
