Wall collapse leaves two construction workers dead in Chattogram

Two workers have died after an under-construction boundary wall came crashing down in Chattogram’s Jubilee Road.

The incident occurred near the Election Commission office in the port city around 12pm on Saturday, bdnews24.com reports citing police.

The victims were identified as Md Salauddin, 20, and ‘Shukkur’, 18. Salauddin was killed on the spot while Shukkur died on the treatment table at Chattogram Medical College and Hospital.

The construction work was being carried out in an open space beside the EC office.
