Sahiduzzaman Beltu, 40, was also an executive member of Gangni upazila Awami League unit, reports our Khustia correspondent.
In protest of the killing, the ruling party activists in Gangni put barricade on Kushtia-Meherpur highway on Friday.
Mizanur Rahman, officer-in-charge (OC) of Gangni Police Station said a group of seven to eight criminals went to Sahiduzzaman's two-storey building at Banumdi bazaar area around 9:15pm.
The criminals called Sahiduzzaman from the road through cell phone, said the OC quoting Sahiduzzaman’s servant Biplob.
The OC said Sahiduzzaman must have known the miscreants as he came out and took them in his house.
At one stage of talking, one of the criminals opened fire on Sahiduzzaman. He died on the spot, the OC added.
None of the Sahiduzzaman's family member was in the house during the incident.
