Earlier on Eid day (Monday) afternoon, Hridoy went for a walk with friends at Golbunia Bulk Yard on the banks of the Payra River in Barguna. At that time, Hridoy protested as the accused harassed a female friend who was with Hridoy and also due to previous enmity. When the two sides got into an argument, the accused beat some of Hridoy's friends and seriously injured them.
Later, the locals rescued the injured and admitted them to Barguna General Hospital. The critically injured Hridoy was sent to Barisal Sher-e-Bangla Medical College Hospital for better treatment. Hridoy died on Tuesday morning while undergoing treatment there.
