Arambagh police quickly arrived at the scene and arrested Reshma Khatun, Khan’s second wife, based on the family’s complaint. The investigation is ongoing, and the police are yet to release details about the exact cause of death.
Sources close to the family revealed that Khan, a resident of Tirol Dadanpur village in Arambagh, had married Reshma a few years ago, following his divorce from his first wife. Allegations have surfaced that Reshma had been pressuring Fayezuddin to leave his ancestral home and move to the city of Arambagh for some time. Reportedly, the couple began living in the rented house in Basudebpur just four days before the tragedy unfolded.
Tensions escalated further when family members of the deceased accused Reshma of being involved in his death. They claim that she had been demanding a move to the city to suit her lifestyle, which had caused friction between the couple. “She was always pushing him to shift to the city, away from his family and roots,” one family member stated.
The situation has become a flashpoint in the local community, with supporters of the Trinamool leader gathering at Arambagh Medical College Hospital, where Khan’s body is being kept. The tense atmosphere has prompted heightened police presence to prevent any potential clashes or unrest among the gathered crowd.
While the police have arrested Reshma Khatun, they are continuing to investigate all possible angles, including whether there were any external factors or individuals involved in the incident. A forensic team is also examining the bathroom and surrounding areas where the body was found to gather further evidence.
The sudden death of Fayezuddin Khan has sent shockwaves through the Trinamool labor union, and political leaders have called for a fair and swift investigation. “This is a tragic and unexpected loss. We demand a thorough investigation so that the truth comes out,” said a local Trinamool representative.
As the investigation unfolds, the community is left in shock, mourning the sudden death of a leader known for his work with the labor union. The family and supporters are anxiously awaiting the post-mortem report, which they hope will shed light on the exact cause of his death and help resolve the swirling suspicions.
Police sources indicated that more arrests may follow if new evidence or leads emerge in the coming days. Meanwhile, the local administration has urged the public to remain calm and allow law enforcement to carry out their investigation without interference.
For now, all eyes remain on the police and the findings of their investigation as the region comes to grips with the tragic death of a prominent community leader.
