Two men died after being electrocuted in Chandpur town's Puran Bazar area this morning.

The deceased were identified as Md Montu Dhali, 70, son of late Abdul Dhali, and Md Anwar Hossain Khan, 55, son of Amin Khan - both residents of the West Jafarabad village.

Quoting locals, Chandpur Sadar Model Police Station Officer-In-Charge Md Bahar Mia said the house became electrified due to an earthing issue. Anwar was electrocuted when he touched the tin wall of the house while trying to step outside and screamed for help. Montu Dhali was also electrocuted when he tried to rescue Anwar.

Locals said both victims were rushed to Chandpur General Hospital, where Resident Medical Officer (RMO), Dr Asibul Ahsan, declared them dead upon arrival.

"No complaints were filed by the victims' families. Two separate unnatural death cases have been registered with the police station," he said.

The bodies were handed over to the families, added the OC.
