A young man was shot dead by miscreants in Brahmanbaria’s Nabinagar upazila on Sunday evening.

The deceased Shamim Sarker (26) was a son of Almas Sarker, hailing from Charlapang village of the upazila.

Criminals from the adjoining areas under Raipura thana of Narsingdi district took shelter at the village after committing crime, said Raju Ahmed, Officer-in-Charge (investigation) of Nabinagar police station.

Acting on a tip-off, a team of police along with local Awami League leaders went to the village in the afternoon.

The injured was rushed to upazila health complex where doctors declared him dead, said the OC.
