A student named Rubel Hossain has been accused of being killed by throwing him from the roof of the house by tying his hands and feet in Kushtia. He was a student of Power Department of Kushtia Government Polytechnic Institute. The incident took place on Tuesday (October 1) in the Aruapara area of Kushtia city around 11:15 pm.
According to the police and eyewitness sources, Rubel was first blindfolded and brutally beaten. Then he was thrown from the roof of a four-storey building with his hands and feet tied.
