A man was killed while scuffling with his brother and father over share of profits from a family shop early yesterday in the city’s Begunbari.
The body of the deceased, Al-Amin, 32, was sent to Dhaka Medical College morgue for autopsy while police arrested younger brother Alamgir Hossain, 30, and their father Khorshed Alam, 55, for the murder.
Khorshed was living with his two sons at North Begunbari in Tejgaon. They run a small shop in the area and sell betel leaf and cigarettes.
Sub-Inspector Abdul Kuddus, of Tejgaon Industrial Area Police Station, told The Daily Star that Al-Amin died when he fell on the ground during the scuffle and got hurt in the head.
The dispute was over sharing of the income from the business, he said.
Police said Khorshed confessed that he and Alamgir had beaten Al-Amin at one stage of the argument.
