Gazipur father-daughter suicide: Main accused arrested

Staff Correspondent: Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) has arrested the prime accused in a case filed over the alleged incitement of a man and his daughter to commit suicide in Gazipur’s Sreepur upazila.

The identity of the detainee could not be known immediately.

A text message sent to media confirmed the matter by RAB-4 on Saturday noon.

Following the issue, RAB Legal and Media Wing's Senior Assistant Director Mizanur Rahman Bhuiyan said that details will be disclosed later through press conference.

On April 29, Hazrat Ali, along with his daughter Ayesha, 8, jumped before a running train in Gazipur apparently out of frustration at not getting justice over sexual abuse of the minor girl.

The story moved hearts across the nation and triggered protests including in the social media.

Hazrat’s wife, Halima Begum, had lodged a complaint with Sreepur police station on January 15, accusing local strongman Faruk of trying to rape her daughter.
