Police identified the victims as Nurul Kabir, 35, and Rajiur Rahman Raju, 36. Both of them were residents of the city's Uttar Kattoli.

Highway police's Baro Awlia outpost SI Mizanur Rahman said the victims were on their way from the city to attend an Eid-ul-Fitr programme in Sitakunda.

A Chittagong-bound bus rammed the motorcycle from the front at Bagula Bazar on the Dhaka-Chittagong highway in the afternoon killing the duo on the spot, he said.

Locals stopped the bus but the driver fled the scene.
