Rooppur killing: 3 Belarus nationals sent to jail

A murder case has been filed at Ishwardi Police Station in connection with the death of a Kazakhstan national in Ishwardi Rooppur Residential Project Green city in Ishwardi on Saturday night.

Shvets Vladimir, 50, an employee of contractor firm NIKIMT at Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant, was found hacked to death at a house in the Green city, police said.  His brother, identified as Amere, was admitted to a hospital with injuries.

A court in Pabna sent three Belarus citizens to jail on Monday, a day after Iurii Fedorov, director of the contracting firm, filed the case accusing them of committing the murder, said Raihan Pervez, sub-inspector of Ishwardi Police Station.

The murder suspects are Urbanavichus Vitali, 44, Fedarovich Henadz, 42, and Matsveyeu Uladzimir, 43. They work at Russian company Rossem.

The three Belarus nationals were earlier detained by police. Later they were shown arrested under the murder case.

The body of the Kazakhstan national was kept at the mortuary of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital.

In primary investigation police found that the two Kazakh brothers went to the room of three Belarus nationals to settle a monetary dispute. At one stage they got involved in heated arguments.

"Police are investigating the suspected murder," said Raihan.
