The bullet-hit body of a trader was recovered from his house in Kushtia Sadar upazila on Sunday morning. 


The deceased was identified as Abdur Rahman Ujjal, 35, son of late Osman of Tajmor area under Patikabari union of the upazila. 

He worked as a distributor for a biscuit company and ran a photocopy shop at the local bazar. 

Locals said he built a house on his own land a few yards away from his ancestral home due to family dispute the land and had been living there. 

Around three months back, his wife went to her father’s housing with her son following dispute  with her husband.
