Trinamul worker Amir Ali Sardar was gunned down in Basanti, South 24-Parganas, amid murmurs of infighting within the ruling party. Sardar’s family said he had left home at 4am when some men shot him at close range. “Aminuddin and his men from the youth Trinamul were hurling bombs. When my brother tried to stop them he was shot,” alleged Ekramuddin, the victim’s brother. TMC leader Abdul Mannan Gaji accused MLA Molla of “spreading terror in Basanti”.
