Conflict over drug dealing: LocalsRefat Sharif, the victim of the much-publicised daylight murder in Barguna, along with his assailants Nayon Bond and Rifat Forazi all share one commonality - drugs.The three were implicated in multiple narcotics-related cases and had been friends before their relationship soured after a conflict over drug dealing, say locals. "Refat Sharif had a dispute with Nayon Bond over the issue of drugs and Nayon plotted against Refat by entrapping him in drug-related cases. The row of drug dealing between Refat and Nayon was mentioned by Minny's uncle Abu Saleh too. She told Nayon Bond about the incident who in turn sought to punish Refat for attacking her," said a police official, requesting anonymity. The plot to murder Refat then unfolded in the 'Bond 007' group thread on Facebook messenger.
