“Nurul Islam, a fighter in the Liberation War, lives in the Mohamaya area,” said Inspector Barua. “He was crossing the road when the speeding motorcycle crashed in front of him.”
“Trying to avoid a crash, the motorcycle’s driver lost control of the vehicle and the three passengers were thrown from it onto the road.”
Shanto died on the spot. Locals rescued the other victims and took them to Chandpur Hospital for treatment. Asif later died from his injuries.
Nurul Islam and Sajjad are both critically injured and have been sent to Dhaka for advanced treatment, said Roman Hossain, a doctor from the Chandpur General Hospital’s Emergency Department.
