Chandpur, Dec 13 (UNB): Police recovered the body of a 25-year-old man on Thursday, four days after he disappeared from a fish project in Ghogra Beel of Sachar Union at Kachua Upazila in Chandpur.
Kachua Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) M Abdul Halim said police discovered the body with its legs tied to an irrigation machine.
Raihan, an employee of the project, was detained for questioning, said the OC.
The deceased, Atiq Majumdar, was the son of former UP member Abdul Matin Majumdar from Bajurikhola village. Atiq disappeared on Monday afternoon while heading home after completing work on a fish project in Dakshin Beel near his house.
Later, Abdul Matin Majumdar filed a missing person's diary at Kachua Police Station on Wednesday.
Abdul Matin said that Atiq had informed him around 5 pm on Monday via mobile phone that he was on his way home. Shortly after, Atiq's phone was found switched off.
"I believe someone planned my son's murder, tied his feet to the water machine, and threw his body into the project," he alleged.
Legal proceedings would continue based on the autopsy report, said the OC.
