The 60-year-old writer was a prominent secularist. The incident took place when Bachchu had visited his friends near a pharmacy shop right before iftar. This was when five attackers on two motorcycles blasted a crude bomb outside the pharmacy store and dragged Bachchu out of the shop and shot him dead, reports the Dhaka Tribune. "Two motorcyclists wearing helmets first exploded two to three crude bombs and then shot him dead," officer-in-charge (OIC) of the Sirajdikhan police station told Benar News.
