Train set on fire in Tejgaon: BNP demands judicial probe

“Those who set fire to a train at Tejgaon in Dhaka today and took the lives of four passengers are undoubtedly inhuman. It’s not possible without the involvement of special quarters,” he said.

The BNP leader said there is deep suspicion among the public whether this incident was carried out as a ploy to divert public attention away from the ongoing democratic movement.

The BNP leader also prayed for eternal peace of the departed souls of those who were killed and speedy recovery of the injured.

At least four people including a child were killed as miscreants set fire to the Dhaka-bound Mohanganj Express train in the capital’s Tejgaon Railway station area early Tuesday, just an hour before today’s hartal called by BNP and likeminded opposition parties began.
