Bangladeshi expat killed in Saudi road crash

A Bangladeshi expatriate, living in the city of Taif in Saudi Arabia, was killed in a road crash on Thursday, reports UNB.

The victim was identified as Abu Yusuf, 30, son of Nurul Islam of Majhigachha village in Kachua upazila, Chandpur.

Yousuf, who went to Saudi Arabia three years back, was crushed under the wheels of a covered van, said his brother Md Al Amin.

“Just two hours before his death, Yusuf had spoken to us over phone saying that he bought some gifts for the family,” Al Amin said.

Local UP chairman Ishaque Shikder said they will provide all the necessary assistance in bringing Yusuf’s body back home.
