Bangladeshi migrant wanted to go to Italy, but died in Daugavpils Bangladeshi citizen Sohal Rana traveled to Qatar on April 6 last year after Suag Sarkar, a native of the same village living in Italy, promised to arrange his passage to Italy for 2.6 million taka (19,000 euros) within three months. Instead, Sohl spent about a year in Qatar, unable to leave. When he decided to return home, he was allegedly persuaded to go to Egypt. After living there for several months, he tried again to return to his homeland, but was reportedly intercepted on the way to the airport and taken to Belarus. His wife last spoke to him on October 6. The next day Suhag called her, told her that her husband fell ill in the Latvian forest and demanded money for treatment. On October 7, the Latvian border guard found Sohel in a difficult situation. He was taken to a hospital in Daugavpils, where he died five days later.
