A 17-year-old student named Ashfaq Kabir Sajid was killed on April 12 in Chattogram after being beaten and thrown into a lift shaft from an under-construction eight-story building. Sajid, a first-year student at BAF Shaheen College, had returned from his home in Badarkhali, Cox’s Bazar, earlier that day. Police said he was attacked by a group of youths in the Baklia area and tried to escape into a residential building, but was chased, beaten, and fatally pushed into the shaft.
Sajid had moved to Chattogram eight months earlier to pursue higher studies, living in a small rented room in the DC Road area. Coming from a lower-middle-class family, his parents had supported his education despite financial hardship. His death has left the family devastated.
Police arrested three suspects—Mishkatul Kayes, Enayetullah, and Enamul Haque—two days after the incident. Investigators described them as known local criminals linked to youth gangs, with multiple prior cases. The motive behind the killing remains unclear, according to police.
