There is a saloon at the entrance to the Rupali residential area of Chandgaon in Chattogram city. Sameer Ghosh, a garage owner known to the shopkeeper, has come to cut hair in that saloon. In words, the shopkeeper asked Sameer Ghosh whether the family of the employee who was killed by inserting air into the anus in your garage a few days ago has filed a case. Smiling in response to that question, Sameer said, 'If it was a case, would you see me here? He would have stayed in jail for a few days by now.

Then Sameer highlighted how he covered up the murder. He said, 'My younger brother ( runs a shop in front of the CMC hospital) has managed the hospital. I paid the rest by going to that boy's house three times. I also took a written from his parents in the presence of a member of the Union Parishad so that no case would be filed later. There is no more trouble.' Then some people who came to the saloon to cut hair asked Sameer to know how the boy was killed. Seeing the interest of the people around, Sameer avoided saying that he was busy, then quickly left the shop. Incidentally, this reporter was also there.

Barta24.com's investigation started after getting some glimpse of the incident from Sameer's mouth. A long-term investigation revealed how a young man was murdered. And how the murder was covered up.

The name of the victim of murder is Subrata Ghosh. And he was also killed by a young man, his name is Mohammad Rocky. Rocky and Subrata used to work in two garages in Bahaddarhat bus terminal area of Chattogram city. Rocky in Emran Hossain's garage and Subrata in Sameer Ghosh's garage. Both are about the same age, 25-26 years. On March 5, the murder happened at six in the evening in Imran's garage.

From that little matter Rockey and Subrata picked up a quarrel. At time Mohammad Rocky forcibly inserted the nozzle of the blue pipe (wheel cleaning and airing device) into Subrata Ghosh's anus. Instantly Subrata, who was standing, froze and fell down. His whole stomach swelled with air. After that, the nearby people quickly rescued Subrata and took him to a local clinic. From there he was taken to Chattogram Medical College Hospital and the air was removed after surgery. But ICU was needed after that. That is why he was taken to the private Parkview Hospital, one kilometer away. But Subrata could not be saved. The eldest son, the main support of the husbandless mother's survival, fell into the lap of death at night.

The murder happened in a crowded area. There are also witnesses who saw the whole incident. But still no murder case! Subrata's mother and brother were not allowed to carry out the post-mortem of the body. Late at night, Subrata's body was sent to Chechuria village in East Chechuria village of Banshkhali. Arrangements were made to cremate Subrata's body in the courtyard of his house before dawn.

The garage owner Sameer Ghosh, who was like a father to Baba Hara Subrata, arranged to cover up the whole incident. And Bikash Dutta, a member of Bailchari Union Parishad, assisted him in this work. Barta24.com's investigation revealed how the incident was covered up after the killing of a fresh young man, how his parents and siblings were kept silent by intimidation.

what happened that day

A lane goes west before the mosque near Bahaddarhat bus terminal. A one-story building is on the right hand side after a little step in that lane. There are rows of shops on both sides of the ground floor of that building. North facing two car wheel repair garage. Among them, the garage on the eastern side belongs to Sameer, where Subrata was working as a manager. The garage opposite is Emran's. This reporter visited the spot three times to find out what exactly happened that day. But no one wanted to be named.

However, some eyewitnesses have highlighted the whole incident. They said, that day was Tuesday (March 5) evening. Rocky was cleaning the wheels with a blue pipe nozzle. Subrata was watching it standing by. At that time, before suddenly realizing anything, Rocky pressed the nozzle along Subrata's anus. Even though Subrata was wearing pants, it was no barrier in front of the high velocity wind. Within seconds, Subrata collapsed with a swollen stomach. Seeing that the situation was dire, the workers of the nearby garage along with Rocky came and took Subrata to a nearby clinic. But as there was no oxygen supply machine there, he was taken to Chattogram Medical College (CMC) Hospital. After being stunned, Subrata's stomach was surgically evacuated. But due to the high velocity air, the sensitive stomach, liver and pulse were damaged. That is why urgent treatment is required in intensive care unit (ICU). But as the ICU was not vacant in CMCH, Subrata was taken to the private Parkview Hospital, a kilometer away. At 12:10 PM there, Subrata fell to his death.

Two eyewitnesses said that Subrata and Rocky had already had animosity for some reason. Rocky wanted to repay that. On the occasion of not having the owner in the garage, Rocky inserted the nozzle along Subrata's anus because long-time garage worker Rocky knows the high-velocity air delivery of this blue pipe nozzle. Such incidents have happened many times in the country. It is not acceptable that Rocky did this without understanding.

Subrata's brother was not informed in the beginning Subrata's younger brother Suman Ghosh already works in the garage. He brought Subrata to Sameer's garage. Even though he worked in another garage, Suman had a good relationship with Sameer. But even after Subrata fell seriously ill, Suman was not informed about his brother's plight. Suman came to know about the incident at eight o'clock in the night, at Subrata CMC Hospital after taking Sameer told that too under duress because such a sensitive patient was not being admitted to the hospital without a guardian.

Subrata's mother Panna Ghosh pointed that out to Barta24.com. She said, 'Suman was called and informed about Subrata at around eight o'clock in the night. After that, Suman called me and informed me about the incident. Basically, in the case of hospitalization, a guardian is needed, that's why Suman was called and taken to the hospital.

Sameer tries to hide the incident

This reporter went to Sameer's garage three times to find out about the Subrata murder. But he was not found. The journalist came and got away with a trick. Although contacted by phone, he disconnected the connection repeatedly citing various problems. Finally last Tuesday Sameer spoke about this.

Sameer Ghosh told Barta24.com, "I was at home at the time of the incident. Later I came to know that Rocky was cleaning the wheels and Subrata was standing there pressing the mobile. At such times, they fought each other because of teasing. Later, Rocky inserted the nozzle into Subrata's anus. Shortly after this, Subrata fell down from standing.

Sameer said that he was taken to CMC Hospital and underwent surgery, "Subrata used to work in my garage. I also had relatives. So I tried to save him. I arranged surgery with CMC Hospital. However, I could not save it.

When asked why no case or legal action was taken, Sameer Ghosh said, 'Rocky ran away soon after Subrata died. I arranged for the cremation of Subrata's dead body on my own initiative and paid all the expenses. Later I called Rocky's father. After reconciling with Subrata's parents, I collected Tk. two lakh from Rocky's father. And Rocky and his father have apologized to Subrata's parents. Since the money has been settled, the incident has not progressed further.

A search at the hospital police outpost did not reveal much about Subrata. Subrata's relatives believe that Sameer Ghosh made arrangements so that the incident did not go to the police.

On the other hand, he was not found in Emran's garage. But when he called, he said, 'I kicked Rocky out of the garage on the day Subrata died. I told you not to come again.

Although he could not say exactly where Rocky's village home is, Emran said, "I know it's in Noakhali." But I don't know which upazila. I heard that Rocky is at home now.

But since Subrata's murder, Rocky is no longer using his old mobile number. His mobile number has been called several times over the past week but has been repeatedly switched off. His father's number was also not available, so it was not possible to talk.

do not know how much money has been settled.

When asked to know from Bikash Dutt, he said, 'This is a long time ago. After Subrata's family informed me about the matter, I sat down and resolved it. It ended on that day.' But when asked about the settlement with money, he avoided it and said, 'You can't talk so much on the phone. Come face to face.

Chandgaon police station is half a kilometer away from the garage where Subrata was murdered. However, even after almost two and a half months of the incident, the police do not know any information about this.

When asked, Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Chandgaon Police Station Zahidul Kabir told Barta24.com, "We are not aware of the matter." No one complained. But now that I know, I will look into this matter.

Advocate Akhtar Kabir Chowdhury, general secretary of Sushashoner Jonnya Nagrik (Sujan) Chattogram district branch told Barta24.com, "The police have their own sources. They also have community policing. Still, if the police do not know about such brutal murders, what is credible.

Suman left the job under pressure

After the death of his elder brother, Suman joined work in the garage of Bahaddarhat bus terminal area of Chattogram city. But many people went to him and wanted to know about the murder of his brother. As a result, the incident spread. Two people close to Suman said, 'If Suman tried to tell everyone about his brother, others including Sameer Ghosh threatened him. He said, "I took the money, I gave a written bond saying that I will not file a case - even then why are you telling everyone." After that, Suman quit his job in fear. This young man is also avoiding the phone because of fear of the unknown, so it was not possible to talk.

When Sameer Ghosh was asked about Suman, he said, "He has left her job and gone home." But Sameer denied the pressure.

Subrata joined the garage four months ago

Subrata appeared in the SSC examination. However, the study did not proceed further due to failure. Later, Subrata got a job in a drug pharmacy in Habib's shop area. But lost that job during Corona. After that he worked in different places. He worked in a sweet shop before joining Garage. Last December, younger brother Suman brought him to Chattogram city and arranged a job in that garage. Subrata used to get a salary of Tk. 16 thousand there. But after four months of service, he had to return as a dead body.

Two brothers in the city, mother alone in the village. Suman had to be busy every day. So when Thursday came, Subrata used to run to his mother. He used to return to the city after giving time to his mother for two days. Panna Ghosh recalled that and said, 'And after two days, the son would come to me. But before that, Tuesday came but not that fresh boy of mine, but his frozen body.

In the words of Panna Ghosh, on the one hand, the lamentation of losing a son, on the other hand, the desire to get justice for the murder of his son!
