Mohsin Alam, a businessman who was killed after abduction, was buried yesterday at Mirzapur, Gazipur.

The 37-year-old businessman went missing on May 17 from Mohammadpur, Dhaka.

From the information of two arrested neighbours of the murdered, joint teams of police and Rapid Action Battalion recovered Mohsin's body from a lichi garden at Boidder Bazar of Sonargaon, Narayanganj on Monday, 41 days after his abduction.

After his namaz-e-janaza in the locality, he was buried in his family graveyard in the afternoon.

According to his family, miscreants demanded Tk 10 lakh from them as ransom after his abduction and killed him later for not paying the full amount. However, they also mentioned Mohsin's popularity to be a possible cause for his murder.
