Veteran politician Adhir Chowdhury has voiced sharp criticism following the brutal double murder of Congress leader Anisur Rahman and his son in West Bengal’s Nadia district. The father and son were ambushed while traveling home by car, where assailants reportedly opened fire before hacking the victims to death near their own residence.

Local law enforcement authorities have confirmed the arrest of a Trinamool Congress (TMC) panchayat leader in connection with the double homicide. The investigation has taken a complex turn, with police now focusing on the recovery of two licensed firearms found at the scene, which investigators believe are central to reconstructing the sequence of events that led to the fatal attack.
The brazen nature of the assault has intensified political tensions in the region. Adhir Chowdhury characterized the incident as deeply troubling, stating that the circumstances surrounding the violence raise several pressing questions regarding law and order. He has demanded a transparent investigation to ensure that those responsible for orchestrating the killings face the full extent of the judicial system.
As the Nadia district reels from the tragedy, police remain stationed in the area to maintain order. The recovery of the weapons and the swift apprehension of a political figure have turned this case into a focal point for the ongoing discourse on regional safety. Further details are expected to emerge as forensic reports on the firearms are finalized and interrogations of the suspect continue.
