A 22-year-old man named Hasan Shikdar from Shibchar upazila in Madaripur district attempted suicide by climbing a 460-foot electric tower on the night of May 3, 2026, following the breakup of his romantic relationship. He threatened to jump unless his former partner agreed to reconcile and come to the site. Police, fire service personnel, rural electricity staff, and his family members rushed to the scene after being alerted.
Hasan’s friend also arrived and climbed the tower to persuade him to come down. After about four and a half hours of negotiation, Hasan was safely brought down around 11 p.m. under the supervision of the rescue team. Police then took him into custody for protection and later handed him over to his family. The incident drew a large crowd of onlookers near the tower.
According to the Shibchar Fire Service Station Officer, the rescue operation was conducted through continuous communication and persuasion until Hasan agreed to descend safely.
