A 15-year-old boy was killed and another critically injured after their motorcycle hit a roadside tree in the Sichni Bridge area of the Dabar-Jagannathpur road on Monday afternoon.

The deceased, Nirab Mia, was a seventh-grade student at Aktapara Madrasa and the son of Tadir Islam from Islampur village. His classmate, Sakibur Islam, 15, sustained life-threatening injuries in the accident.

Local sources report that the duo had taken a motorcycle belonging to Nirab’s uncle without family permission to visit Pagla Bazar. At approximately 4:30 PM, while returning home, the rider lost control of the speeding vehicle near Sichni Bridge in Dargapasha Union, crashing into a tree.

Nirab died instantly from severe head trauma. Sakibur was rushed to Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College Hospital, where he remains in critical condition, according to family members.

Shantiganj Police Station Sub-Inspector (SI) Nobel Sarkar confirmed that police attended the scene immediately. SI Selim Mia prepared the preliminary inquest report, and the body is being sent to Sunamganj Sadar Hospital morgue for an autopsy.
