The deceased was identified as Shahinur Rahman Shahan, 40, son of Nasiruddin of North Teota village. Witnesses said a team of 10-15 people, allegedly led by local Jubo League leader Masud Hossain, attacked a Jatra stage and vandalised it as Masud found his name missing on the guest list of the programme. Later, they attacked the audience as they tried to resist the attackers, leaving Shahinur Rahman dead on the spot and the 10 people injured. One of the injured, Lal Chand, 30, was admitted to Uthali Upazila Health Complex, while the body was sent to Sadar Hospital for autopsy, said Rakibuzzaman, officer-in-charge of Shibalaya Police Station, according to a news agency.
