A man was allegedly hacked to death by his drug addicted younger brother in Dakkhin Nayamati area in Narayanganj Sadar upazila on Saturday night.

 

The deceased was identified as Liton Khan (33), son of Barek Khan, hailing from Korati village of Madaripur district.

 

Liton used to live in a rented house in Dakkhin Nayamatir area with his three brothers, a sister and parents, reports UNB. 

 

Hridoy Khan, younger brother of victim Liton, used to take money forcibly from the family members to take drugs, said Kamal Uddin, the Officer-in-Charge of Fatullah Model Police Station.

 

On Friday night, Hridoy confined his mother in a room demanding money for taking drugs around 9:30pm.

The locals also caught Hriday and handed him over to the police, the OC added.
