Faisal Mohammad Selim Chowdhury Babu, a 32-year-old resident of Islampur Union in Eidgaon, Cox’s Bazar, died on Tuesday, April 28, while undergoing treatment at Chittagong Medical College Hospital. He had been severely tortured by local Union Parishad member Nur Mohammad and his associates on the night of April 16 after being accused of fish theft. Despite days of medical care, Selim succumbed to his injuries in the early hours of the morning.
Following his death, Selim’s mother, Dildar Begum, suffered a stroke upon hearing the news and is currently hospitalized. Two days before her son’s death, she had filed a case with Eidgaon Police Station naming Nur Mohammad as the main accused along with five others. The Officer-in-Charge stated that the case will now be treated as a murder investigation. Local residents alleged that despite media reports, authorities had not taken effective action earlier.
Selim’s death has sparked widespread outrage on social media, with locals demanding immediate arrest of those responsible. Administrative procedures, including autopsy, were ongoing at the time of reporting.
