Police said that the incident took place at the early hours of Tuesday at the capital’s Khilgaon area.

The attackers, armed with sharp weapons, barged in to a makeshift accommodation for the guards at the site, said local police OC Mainul Islam.

“The five security guards were rushed to the Dhaka Medical College Hospital, where 45-year-old Abdus Sattar died early morning,” he said.   

Another guard is still being treated at the hospital while the rest three received first aid, said police.
