Bangladeshi expat shot dead in Saudi Arabia

A Bangladeshi expatriate worker has been shot dead by a muezzin in Saudi Arabia for allegedly failing to make prayer call on his behalf, reports bdnews24.com.
The incident took place on Sunday at Ortawwiyah in Majmaah district, some 30km from Riyadh, Arab News reported Thursday.
The Bangladeshi has been identified as Mohammed Rafiq Tajul Islam (32).
Islam, from Shariatpur's Kholaparha, had been working at the mosque for some time, Arab News quoted Bangladesh Embassy's Labour Councillor Mohamed Sarwar Alam as saying.
Locals said he used to make prayer calls for the muezzin but had failed to do so on Sunday and it infuriated the muezzin.
Labour Councillor Alam said they had informed Islam's family of the murder and added the embassy was sorting out paperwork of the victim.
Another expatriate Indian worker was also wounded in the firing.
He is undergoing treatment at a local hospital. Police did not disclose his identity but said he was out of danger.
Police have arrested the accused muezzin who, they claim, is a psychiatric patient.
