Sad death of bank official

Unb, Sherpur
A Grameen Bank official in Nalitabari upazila died 'mysteriously' early yesterday. The deceased was identified as Ripon, 30, second manager of Marichpuran branch of the bank at Mathafata Bazar in the upazila. Local sources said Grameen Bank zonal manager Abul Kashem Mohammad Moktadir Rahman visited the Marichpuran branch on Friday morning and made an indecorous behaviour with Ripon over official matter. Later, Ripon fell sick and first he was admitted to upazila health complex and then shifted to Mymensingh Medical College and Hospital where he died at 2:00am. Colleagues alleged that Ripon, who hailed from Dewanganj upazila of Jamalpur, died of heart attack due to misbehaviour with him. But Moktadir, when contacted over cell phone, denied visiting the Marichpuran branch of the bank on the day.
