At least 10 people were killed and 40 others injured in a stampede during the qulkhwani of former Chittagong mayor Mohiuddin Chowdhury yesterday.
The incident happened as several hundred people scrambled for food at the entrance to Rima Convention Centre in the port city's Askar Dighir Par area, say witnesses and police.
The entrance had an incline and was narrow compared to the crowd, they said.
Almost all the deceased were Hindus.
Family members of Mohiuddin, who died on Friday after suffering from kidney and heart complications for some time, said they arranged doa mahfil and feast for the late Chittagong city AL president at 14 community centres in Chittagong yesterday.
