Momen Mia, 55, was killed after being shot during an alleged surprise attack at his home in Soudagarkandi, Chandpur ইউনিয়ন of Raipura, Narsingdi, on Sunday, August 2. The incident involved the Momen group and the Purba Para Farid group and was reportedly linked to a longstanding dispute. Three other people were wounded by gunfire and are receiving treatment at Raipura উপজেলা Health Complex.

The injured were identified as Mobarak, 65, Nazmul Hossain, 30, and Ruhul Amin, 37. Relatives of the deceased and local residents said tensions had persisted between the Farid group and the Momen group, associated with a former union parishad chairman. They said the local member of parliament had made several attempts to settle the dispute, but tensions had recently resurfaced.

According to relatives and residents, members of the Farid group entered Momen Mia’s house carrying local weapons and attacked him, shooting him in the head and leg. Emergency physician Dr Binita said he had no pulse or blood pressure upon arrival at hospital, with preliminary indications that he died from excessive blood loss before reaching the facility. Police deployed additional personnel in the area.
