Just a day after the tragic death of a Notre Dame College student being hit by a DSCC truck, another man was crushed under the wheels of a DNCC vehicle in the city’s Panthapath area on Thursday.

The victim was identified as Ahsan Kabir Khan, 48, a printing-press businessman of Moghbazar in the city.

According to witnesses, Kabir, a pillion passenger of a motorcycle, fell on the opposite road of Bashundhara shopping mall being hit by the speeding truck around 2:30 PM.

Golam Rabbani, a sub-inspector of Kalabagan police station, rescued him from the spot and took him to the emergency department of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) where doctors declared him dead around 4 pm.

Another injured person is being treated at a local hospital, he said.

Kabir’s wife, Nadira Parvin Rekha, said his husband did not know how to drive a motorcycle “He might be riding it with someone else,” she said.

Meanwhile, DNCC (Dhaka North City Corporation) has formed a three-member probe committee to investigate the accident and asked it to submit a report within three working days.

On Wednesday, Naim Hasan, a 17-year-student of Notre Dame College was killed after a DSCC garbage truck hit him at Golchattar in the city’s Gulistan area while crossing the road.

Patrol police in the area detained the driver of the vehicle, Russel Khan, while he was fleeing and seized the truck, said Md A Ahad, DMP deputy police commissioner (Motijheel range).

A case was filed at Paltan police station in this regard following a complaint lodged by Naim’s father, he said.

Russel was neither appointed by DSCC as a driver nor he has any driving license, said the police official.

Accused Russel was placed on a three-day remand on Thursday by a Dhaka court on Thursday.
