Two Remains Found on Bashbaria Beach

Around 10 p.m. on Monday (24 July), locals discovered the dead of two visitors at Bashbaria beach in Chattogram's Sitakunda district. 

The deceased have been named as Enayet Ullah, 22, and Ali Hasan Maruf, 23. 

Maruf was one of them, and he was from Cumilla, while Enayet was from Bhairab. They both attended Chattogram's International Islamic University to further their education. 

On Monday afternoon, Maruf and Enayet were out for a stroll at Bashbari Beach with their buddy Ekram Hossain when the tide carried them away.   

Chairman of Bashbari union parishad Shawkat Ali said one body was recovered first, and another was found after searching around. 

Station Officer of Chattogram Fire Service Station Firoz Mia said, "We went to the spot in the afternoon to conduct a search and rescue operation after the tourists went missing but couldn't find them. They were later recovered by the locals around 10pm."

On 6 July, locals recovered the body of another 16-year-old tourist named Mehedi Hasan 19 hours after he went missing at Guliakhali beach in Sitakunda.
