An intermediate student sustained bullet injuries in his left leg when miscreants fired targeting a union-level Awami League (AL) leader in Belkuchi upazila of Sirajganj on Friday (1 June) night.
The injured was identified as Al-Amin, 18, son of Jamser Ali of Chak Mokimpur village and a Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) student of local Jamuna Degree College.
Belkuchi Police Station Officer-in-Charge Md Anisur Rahman confirmed the matter saying that the college student received bullets in his leg while sitting at a tea stall as the miscreants opened fire at Shawkat Ali, information and research secretary of Rajapur union parishad unit of the Awami League and a sand trader by profession, around 11:45pm.
On information, Al-Amin was rescued and rushed to Sirajganj Shaheed M Mansur Ali Medical College where he is now undergoing treatment, the OC said.
A rubber bullet and a part of a gun were recovered from the spot after the incident, he said, suspecting that a dispute centring the sand business led to the firing.
No one has so far been arrested in this connection, he added.
