Dhaka/IBNS: Police have recovered the body of an Awami League leader in Bangladesh's Noakhali area, media reports said on Sunday.

The incident occurred in Companiganj Upazila.

The dead man, identified as Md Sohrab Hossain, 40, was attacked in a house near his residence in Char Amzad at 12:30am on Sunday. He was a former president of the Companiganj Awami League's Char Elahi Union Ward No. 6 unit, reported bdnews24.

The body was recovered on Sunday.
