Kolkata: In a tragic incident, the body of an MBBS aspirant was discovered concealed inside a suitcase at his rented accommodation in New Town, located on the northern outskirts of Kolkata, on Friday. Upon arriving at the scene, the police found the body of Sazid Hossain tightly sealed with cello-tape. Authorities have taken two individuals into custody in connection with this case. The first is Gautam, who is the owner of the rented accommodation where the victim had been staying. The second individual arrested in connection with the incident is Pappu Singh, a local restaurant owner.









Hossain, who hailed from Baishnabnagar in the Malda district of West Bengal, had chosen to reside in the rented accommodation to dedicate himself to preparing for the NEET examinations.









"His parents have complained that their son could not be contacted since October 4. His father contacted his friends but they could not update him about the whereabouts of the victim. His father reached Kolkata and filed a complaint at the local New Town police station. Finally, his body was recovered from a suitcase at the rented room where he used to stay," an investigating official confirmed IANS.


The victim's father has disclosed to the police that on the night of October 4, he received a ransom call from an unknown number, adding another troubling dimension to the case.


According to police sources, during questioning, Gautam, the owner of the accommodation, admitted to his involvement in the murder, along with the second person arrested in this case.
