Corruption case was going on against Salim
Salim was accused of being involved in illegal excavation of sand from the Padma-Meghna river near Chandpur Navy boundary for many years. It is being said that he had earned a lot of money from this illegal business. However, he was also jailed for this work and a case is also going on against him in the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).
Officer-in-charge of Chandpur Sadar Model Police Mohammad Sheikh Mohsin Alam said, “We came to know about the death of both of them, but no one informed us. Considering our safety, we did not go there.”
