Assailants have attempted to kill the manager of a garment factory in Gazipur’s Sreepur.

The attackers fired at 45-year-old Niaz Mohammad Riaz in the Kewa (Bakultala) area of Sreepur-Mawna road in the Sreepur municipality around 11 pm on Saturday, said Sreepur Police Station SI Kamrul Islam, reports bdnews24.com.
