He had gone to Delhi only ten days ago in search of work. The factory is allegedly owned by a fellow villager, Sambul Haque. Back in Ramshimul village in Malda, the family has alleged that Ujjal was murdered and later hanged to make it look like suicide. They point to injury marks and signs that his hands were tied. The family also claims the body was sent back to the village in a coffin by ambulance without a post-mortem. Ujjal’s wife, Ruksana Bibi, has demanded a proper investigation and justice. ## Coverage - millenniumpost.in Tags: alleged murder, Delhi, Malda, migrant worker, plastic factory, Sheikh Ujjal Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/malda-migrant-worker-found-dead-in-delhi-family-alleges-murder/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
