Miscreants called him out of his father-in-law's house before they killed him, sources said.

Police said Raja Sarder, son of Mobarak Sarder of Vawdanga village under Pabna Sadar, had long been involved in the extremist politics.

Recently he has left the extremist group and returned to normal life. He married the daughter of Yunus of Challapara under Sujanagar upazila.

As a result, the extremist group he was involved in became furious and killed him, they added.

The body was sent to the Pabna General Hospital Morgue for autopsy. A case was filed with Sujanagar thana in this connection.
