The Story in Brief
Nazrul Islam, a school headmaster in West Bengal's North Dinajpur district, died on Saturday after being shot by unidentified assailants while on his way to work in the Madaripur area of Islampur. He was hit by a bullet, rushed to a local hospital, then shifted to Siliguri, where he succumbed around 1 pm.
Police have launched an investigation and are examining CCTV footage but have made no arrests or found a motive. The victim's family and colleagues said he had no known enemies or political affiliation, leaving them unable to explain the attack.
The Indian Opinion
This cold-blooded murder of a teacher with no apparent enemy or political ties should not be rushed into a narrative of Bengal's political violence. The real question is whether the police will find the actual perpetrators, or let this become another unsolved case. The CCTV footage and call records are the test: they must yield answers, not excuses.
