A fuel station manager was killed in Narail’s Tularampur area after being allegedly run over by a truck driver following a dispute over fuel availability. The incident occurred around 2 a.m. on Saturday when the driver, identified as Sujat Molya, reportedly attacked the manager, Nahid Sardar, after being told that diesel was unavailable at the Messrs Tanvir Filling and Gas Station. Nahid’s companion, Jihadul, was seriously injured in the attack.

Police and witnesses said the driver had earlier argued with the manager and threatened him before waiting near the station. When Nahid and his friend left on a motorcycle, the driver allegedly chased them and ran them over about 150 to 200 yards from the station along the Jessore-Narail highway. Nahid died on the spot, and his injured companion was first taken to Narail Sadar Hospital and later transferred to Dhaka’s Pangu Hospital.

Highway police confirmed that the accused driver fled with the truck. Efforts are underway to apprehend him, and legal action has been initiated.
