Detective police have pressed charges against seven suspects, all identified as “drug dealers”, in the murder case of Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal leader SM Shahriar Alam Shammo. Confirming the submission on Friday, officer Morshed said seven suspects have been charged, while four others were recommended for discharge due to “lack of evidence”. Those named in the chargesheet are Mehedi Hasan, Md Rabbi alias Kobutor Rabbi, Md Ripon alias Akash, Nahid Hasan Papel, Md Hridoy Islam, Md Harunur Rashid Sohag alias Lombu Sohag, and Md Robin. According to the DB officer, all seven are drug traders who have already been arrested. Around midnight, his friends took him to the emergency unit of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
