Bharuch/Surat: Three Bangladeshi nationals staying illegally in the country were arrested for murder by Bharuch local crime branch police on Friday.
According to police, the trio killed a colleague who was threatening them of informing the police about their illegal presence here and of being deported back to their native country. “All four, including the one who was killed, are Bangladeshi nationals and had been staying in our country illegally from past many years. They kept changing their location from Ahmedabad to Surat and Ankleshwar,” said Rajendrasinh Chudasama, SP, Bharuch police.
Deceased who was identified as Akbar, was staying near Chandola talav area of Ahmedabad, and had been allegedly threatening his three colleagues of informing the police and getting them deported to their country if they did not pay him ransom.
Fed up of the constant threatening, the three decided to end the harassment and with the support of local auto-rickshaw driver Naushad Indris Khan, 34, a resident of Bapunagar in Ankleshwar, they called Akbar to their home. Here they tranquillized the victim with some sedative tablets and smothered him to death with a pillow. Later, the accused cut the victim’s body into pieces, packed the remains in polythene bags and put it all in one luggage bag. Autorickshaw driver Naushad took the bag in his auto and dumped it near Sarangpur on Rajpipla road. The bag was recovered on Wednesday. With the help of surveillance and human intelligence, cops caught the three killers who have been identified as Lesina Zakir Abdul Mulla, 37, Mufis Mohammad Mulla, 34, both from Naudal district of Bangladesh, and Ajom Samsu Sheikh, 55 of Khulna district. Accused Naushad is, however, absconding. Police have registered an FIR under IPC 302, 201, 114, and GP Act 135.
