Ex-MP MA Awal masterminded the murder of Pallabi trader Shahinuddin. He instructed people to carry out the killing, according to AKM Hafiz Akhter, additional commissioner of the Detective Branch of Dhaka Metropolitan Police.
Addressing a press conference, he also said Awal had gotten into a dispute with Sahinuddin over the construction of boundary gates and pillars at Awal s Ali Nagar project in Pallabi.
Awal planned to kill Shahinuddin and his staffer Sumon was assigned to execute the plan in return for a huge amount of money. Sumon, with the help of others, hacked Shahinuddin to death on May 16, he said.
