The deceased Omar Faruk was also joint secretary of local union Awami League.
“A gang of five/six unidentified miscreants hacked Faruk mercilessly while he was returning home from Patwarir Haat around 10pm on Friday,” said Emran Hossain Nannu, chairman of north Hamchhadi Union Parishad.
“Locals rushed him to Lakshmipur Sadar Hospital where he died under treatment around 2am Saturday,” he added.
