Naiym Ahmad (24), a young man from Lalarchak village in Sharifpur union of Kulaura upazila, Maulvibazar, went to Cambodia about a year ago through a broker in search of a good job. After arriving, he was put to work as a construction laborer in Sihanoukville, but he soon lost his job and realized he was a victim of fraud. Without a visa and unable to find the broker, he faced severe financial crisis and took shelter in a shack by the sea.
Falling seriously ill due to continuous starvation and lack of treatment, expatriates admitted him to a local hospital, where he passed away on Wednesday at midnight Bangladesh time. Local representatives and residents stated that several youths went to Cambodia on tourist visas lured by a local broker and fell into debt. Preparations are underway to file a case against the fugitive broker, while the family remains uncertain about bringing his body back home.
