Superintendent of Police said, a year ago, Nibu Mia sold land for 21 lakh taka. From that money, Sohail sent Mia abroad with six lakh rupees. But Sohail got married after six months from abroad. He bought an old auto-rickshaw with a loan from an NGO to run the family. But Sohail pressured his father to give him the remaining money from the land sale. Trouble arose between them over this money. On the day of the incident, Sohail came to know that his father had some money. He killed his father by slitting his throat with his friends to get the money from his father.
