Bangladesh MP’s friend paid ₹5 crore to ‘murder’ him: West Bengal CID

The Hindu  

The initial probe into the “murder” of Bangladesh MP Anwarul Azim Anar revealed that one of his friends had paid around ₹5 crore to kill the neighbouring country’s parliamentarian, a senior police officer said here on Thursday. Mr. Anar, who went missing in Kolkata since May 13, was found murdered and three people have been arrested, Bangladesh Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan had said on Wednesday. Asked whether the police found blood stains in the apartment of a luxury condominium in New Town in Kolkata's outskirts, where the MP’s whereabouts were last traced on May 13, Mr. Chaturvedi said, “Our forensic team is examining the suspected crime scene. It’s too early to speak about that.” The search for the missing MP, who reportedly arrived in Kolkata on May 12 to undergo medical treatment, began six days later after Gopal Biswas, a resident of Baranagar in north Kolkata and an acquaintance of the Bangladeshi politician, filed a complaint with the local police on May 18.
