The deceased Kazi Abidur Rahman Main (18) is the son of Kazi Abdul Matin of Nijgaon village of the upazila. This time he gave submission exam from Shaistaganj Model Kamil Madrasa. Sourav, who was arrested, is a resident of the same village.
Locals said that two youths came home on Eid day around 8 pm and called Main. They took him to Dighirpara near Shaistaganj railway junction. There they beat Main and left him.

Main's mother Rokeya Begum said that a few days ago Main had a quarrel with his neighbors Sourav and Junaid. That's why Main cut off contact with them. In that anger, those two killed my son. Main bought three old Punjabis from a sidewalk shop the day before Eid. Couldn't wear any of them.
