Two households in Daulatpur upazila of Kushtia have received shrouds and handwritten notes warning residents to eat whatever they wished within the next 10-12 days, in an apparent death threat.
The incident came to light this morning (11 November), causing fear among residents of Char Sadipur village under Philipnagar union.
The items were left at the homes of Bacchu Malitha, 30, and Moni Doctor, 42, a local village doctor, sometime last night (10 November), according to local sources. Family members found the shrouds, incense sticks, soap, rosewater and notes when they woke up in the morning.
The note left at Bacchu’s house read: “Bacchu bhai, whatever you have or have not eaten in your life, eat something good within the next 10-12 days. Goodbye.”
A similar note found at Moni’s house read: “Moni bhai, whatever you have or have not eaten in your life, whatever you want to eat, have it within the next 10-12 days. Yours beloved. Goodbye.”
Moni said he found the items and the note beside his kitchen in the morning but could not identify who had left them. He said he had gone to the police station with Bacchu to file a general diary (GD) over the incident.
Ekramul Haque, panel chairman of Philipnagar Union Parishad, confirmed that shrouds and threatening notes had been left at the two houses.
Daulatpur Police Station Officer-in-Charge Khaledur Rahman said police had been informed and advised the victims to file a GD. Police were looking into the matter, he added.
Delwar Hossain, additional superintendent of police for the Bheramara-Daulatpur circle, also confirmed that the victims had gone to the police station to file a GD and said police were investigating.
The identities of those responsible and their motive remain unknown.
