He is the BLO of booth No 22 in Papila of the Baduria area. Another culprit, Sagar Gain, has also been taken into custody.<\/p>\n<p>Nasir had been missing since the evening of February 9. His family said he received a phone call that evening from a person who introduced himself as an Assistant Returning Officer (ARO), asking him to meet the BLO urgently with photocopies of his Aadhaar and voter identity cards for SIR-related purposes.<\/p>\n<p>After receiving the call, Nasir left home but did not return. When family members tried contacting him, his phone was found switched off. A missing person complaint was subsequently lodged at the Baduria police station.<\/p>\n<p>The following day, Nasir\u2019s motorcycle and shoes were recovered from a canal in the Chatra area, but there was no trace of him. As the investigation progressed, police arrested Rizwan and Sagar Gain. Both were produced before the Basirhat Sub-Divisional Court, which remanded them to five days of police custody.<\/p>\n<p>During interrogation, police conducted searches under various bridges and along canals in the Baduria area, leading to the recovery of Nasir\u2019s body parts packed in three separate bags from a canal. The motive behind the brutal murder is yet to be ascertained.<\/p>\n<p>Nasir\u2019s wife, Beauty Khatun Bibi, told local reporters that her husband had no known enmity with anyone. \u201cRizwan was my husband\u2019s friend. I knew him as a friend of my husband. I want strict punishment for those who subjected him to such brutal torture,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Police said further investigation is underway to determine the motive and recover the remaining body parts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kolkata: In a gruesome incident in West Bengal\u2019s North 24 Parganas district, a 36-year-old Muslim man was murdered, his body dismembered, and dumped in a canal after he was called to submit documents related to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.
