A scrap trader was hacked to death by unidentified assailants at Arsin Gate in the city's Shyampur area yesterday.

The victim was identified as Mohammad Jahangir Alam, 38, a resident of Asrin Gate.

Local source said Jahangir was married eight years ago with Sagarika and she bore three-girl child but her conjugal life was unhappy.

At the 3:00am some unknown assailants picked up Jahangir. At that time Sagarika left the place with her children. The miscreants hacked him indiscriminately dragging him inside the Riverview Housing Project at Arsin Gate and left him dead on the spot at about 3:30am.
