A prominent leader of Bangladesh's Awami League party, Ishaque Ali Khan Panna, who allegedly fled the country following the collapse of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government, was found dead in Meghalaya, India. The discovery was made not far from the Bangladesh border, as confirmed by the Meghalaya police in a press release.
The semi-decomposed body of Panna was located on August 26 inside a betel-nut plantation in Dona Bhoi village, East Jaintia Hills. The site is approximately 1.5 kilometers from the India-Bangladesh border. According to police sources, Panna’s body was identified by the passport found in his possession.
Panna was strangled to death
Preliminary postmortem findings suggest that Panna was strangled to death. The report indicated that his cause of death was "asphyxia caused by throttling." The body has since been sent for forensic analysis to gather more evidence and details on the incident.
Police sources further mentioned that multiple lacerations, abrasions, and bruises were found on Panna's body, particularly on the forehead, which could indicate that he was involved in a struggle before his death. The postmortem report provides a grim picture, suggesting foul play in what appears to be a violent crime.
Ishaque Ali Khan Panna was a former general secretary of the Bangladesh Chhatra League, a student wing affiliated with the Awami League. His sudden death near the border adds a layer of mystery and raises questions about the circumstances leading to his demise.
