A heart-wrenching photo of an emaciated body lying on the heap of garbage in Hili, Dinajpur, has gone viral on social media.

According to the district correspondent, police recovered the body from the Basudevpur area on Friday afternoon.

Locals said they did not know the man’s name or identity.

The unidentified person was often seen wandering around Hili Bazar, the railway station, CP Mor, and nearby areas.

Some residents said his home might have been in Syedpur. As his name and address were unknown, many used to refer to him as a “Bihari.”
