Jamiul Alim Jibon, a Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) leader, who was allegedly beaten up by Naldanga Upazila Parishad Chairman Asaduzzaman was taken at the ICU of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital.



A Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) leader, who was allegedly beaten up by Naldanga Upazila Parishad Chairman Asaduzzaman over a Facebook post on Monday, has been put on life support.
Jamiul Alim Jibon, 20, was taken at the ICU of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital on Wednesday morning.
Jibon’s uncle Prof SM Feroz, also former general secretary of Naldanga Upazila Awami League, said Jibon was informally declared dead on Wednesday morning. Later, he was taken to the ICU and has been kept a 72-hour observation.
Jibon is the son of Farhad Hossain of Aamtali Bazar area.
Sources said Upazila Chairman Asaduzzaman beat up the BCL leader and his father after calling them to the bazar over the Facebook status on Monday evening, leaving them critically injured.
They were first rushed to Natore Sadar Hospital and later shifted to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital (RMCH) due to deterioration of their physical conditions.
Meanwhile, the victim’s mother Jahanara Begum lodged a complaint at the police station in this connection.
