A Dhaka court today again asked Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) to submit — by February 22 — the probe report in a case filed against Bashundhara Group Managing Director Sayem Sobhan Anvir and seven others over the rape and murder of a college student in Dhaka’s Gulshan.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Begum Yeasmin Ara passed the order after Investigation Officer Golam Moktar Ashrafuddin, also an inspector of PBI, failed to submit the report today, said court sources.
With the latest, PBI took seven dates to submit the report. On January 16, another Dhaka court asked PBI to submit the report by today.
Bashundhara Group MD was made the prime accused in the case while the group’s Chairman Ahmed Akbar Sobhan alias Shah Alam and six others were accused of assisting Anvir.
The six others are Shah Alam’s wife Afroza Begum, Anvir’s wife Sabrina Sayem, model Faria Mahbub Piyasha, Saifa Rahman Mim, Ibrahim Ahmed Ripon and his wife Sharmim.
Police recovered the body of the 21-year-old college student in a Gulshan flat of Dhaka on April 26 last year.
The case was filed by victim’s elder sister on September 6 last year with the Women and Children Repression Prevention Tribunal-8 of Dhaka against Anvir over rape and murder of the victim.
