After the election defeat, supporters of Ashraful Haque of Banshgari and Farukul Islam of Mirzarchar were out of the village for about two and a half months, said locals.

At least five people, including Mamun and Nurul Haque, were injured in the clash, said locals, adding that Mamun died while undergoing treatment at Bhairab Upazila Health Complex in Kishoreganj around 5:30 pm.

Another clash took place between supporters of Fakhrul and Zafar in Mirzarchar Union when Farukul’s supporters tried to return to their village.

During the clash, Rubel Mia was killed in the spot, they said.
