Chowdhury questions jail security after Nadia father-son murder
A father and his son were shot and killed in a place called Nadia.
The father was a leader of a political party called Congress, and his son was a lawyer.
Some people say a leader from another political party gave the order to hurt them.
That leader was in jail at the time, which is very surprising.
A senior Congress leader named Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury visited the family to show support.
He asked the government how a crime could be planned from inside a jail.
He wants the police to arrest everyone involved, no matter which party they belong to.
The victim's brother also asked the police to investigate carefully.
People in the area are scared and worried about what happened.
Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury questioned the state government's jail surveillance after the double murder of party leader Anisur Rahman and his lawyer son Abu Sufian in Nadia district.
Rahman, 54, and his son Abu, 23, were shot dead on Sunday night.
Allegations emerged that the murder was ordered by a Trinamool Congress leader from inside Krishnanagar prison.
Chowdhury demanded the immediate arrest of all accused regardless of political affiliation and an impartial probe into the jail conspiracy allegations.
Rahman's brother Md Ali Jinnah submitted a written appeal to the Krishnanagar superintendent of police seeking an experienced lawyer for the investigation.
