Police recovered a decapitated body of a man from a ditch adjacent to his house in the city's Badda area yesterday.

Neighbours found a body of a man and the victim's elder brother identified him.

The victim was identified as Mohammad Shaheed, 38, a resident of Shatarkul in Badda.

He used to run two rented shops in Gulshan Dhaka City Corporation Market.

Sources close to him suspect that he might have been killed due to dispute centring his newly constructed one story building at Shatarkul.

Locals and police are searching the neighbourhood for the head of the body.

The headless body was sent to Dhaka Medical College Hospital for autopsy.
