Family cries foul as Bengali migrant ‘falls to death' in Ggn

Malda: A Malda resident who worked in a Gurgaon high-rise as a sweeper, was found dead under mysterious circumstances on Friday. Md Shahensha was supposed to return home on Sunday, his family said, due to the harassment Bengali migrants are facing in BJP-governed states. Instead, it was the 42-year-old's body that reached Malda on Sunday evening. While Haryana Police claimed that Shahensha had fallen from the roof of the building where he worked, his family suspects he had been murdered. The Chanchal man had been residing in Gurgaon with his family for 16 years. On Friday morning, Shahensha had gone to work as usual. However, later in the day, his wife received news that Shahensha had an accident. She rushed to the complex to find him dead and was told that Shahensha had fallen from the roof. However, the deep wound on his back made her suspicious.
