In Mirzapur upazila of Tangail, a family already devastated by two separate road accidents has now lost its final means of livelihood to theft. Ripon Hossain, who worked as an operator at a garment factory in Gorai, lost his right leg in a road accident on the Dhaka–Tangail highway. His father, Arfan Hossain, suffered the same fate while rushing to visit him at Kumudini Hospital. Despite their disabilities, the family continued to survive through a small mobile financial service business that Ripon started four years ago near their home in Salimnagar.
On the night of June 24, unidentified thieves broke into their house and stole about 350,000 taka and five mobile phones used for the business. Ripon filed a written complaint with Mirzapur Police Station the next day. Sub-Inspector Pradip Chandra Sarker confirmed that a case had been filed against unknown suspects and that efforts were underway to recover the stolen money and phones.
The family, now left without any source of income, is seeking quick administrative action and community support to rebuild their lives.
