It is to be noted that, a bus of Eagle Paribahan with 30-35 passengers was going to Dhaka from Kushtia on the night of August 2. A group of robbers boarded the bus when it made a stopover at a hotel in Sirajganj.
Later, they gang-raped a female passenger after looting mobiles, cash money, and ornaments from other passengers of the bus in Madhupur upazila of Tangail.
