Shortly after midnight, Khalaf bin Mohammed Salem Al-Ali was found just 30 meters from his home in Dhaka’s Gulshan neighborhood, police official Kamrul Hasan said. He had bullet wounds to his chest and was taken to a hospital, where he died.

A security guard at his home, Taposh Rema, told reporters Al-Ali used to roam around by a bicycle at night but he went outside on foot late Monday. Two other security guards near the crime scene told reporters they heard one gunshot and found Al-Ali lying on the street.
