Around 8pm on Monday, assailants waylaid 32-year-old Md Quaiyum, member of Borhomochhua Union ward 4, and hacked at him with sharp weapons, said Mathbarhia police OC Khondokar Mostafizur Rahman.

He was on his way to Boromochhua from Mathbarhia.

Locals took him to Mathbarhia Upazila Health Complex, he said.

There are several cuts on Quaiyum’s legs and head. He was transferred to Barisal Sher-e-Bangla Medical College Hospital, said Ferdous Islam, physician of the health complex.

OC Mostafizur suspected that internal feud had led to the attack.
