Narsingdi: A Bangladeshi was shot to death by a Saudi citizen on Friday noon.

The deceased was identified as Azizul Talukder, 40, son of Ramjan Ali, of Charamdhua village in Raipura upazila, reports the UNB.

Another Saudi expatriate, hailing from Hasnabad village in the upazila Lutfar Rahman told UNB, ‘Azizul used to run a vegetable shop at Sara Tabida in Abha, Khamis Mushayt.’

On Saturday noon, a Saudi citizen, Khamis Mushayt, purchased some vegetables from his shop and tried to leave the shop without paying him, triggering an altercation there.

Furious to Azizul, the Saudi citizen left the shop and returned after some time with a gun and shoot him five times. Azizul died on the spot, said the expatriate.

Azizul had been living in Saudia Arabia for around 12 years.
