A 55-year-old beekeeper has been killed in a tiger attack in Satkhira range of the Sundarbans, reports The Business Standard.
Solaiman Sheikh, the victim, alongwith six-seven others went to the Sundarbans to collect honey with permission from the forest station three days ago, said his neighbour Jubayer Hossain.
His co-workers informed his family members about his demise on Friday morning.
On Thursday morning, Solaiman was taken away by a tiger, one of his co-workers said adding that the body was recovered from a remote part of the forest.
