Nusrat murder: PBI to submit charge sheet Wednesday

The Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) will submit the charge sheet to the court against Feni madrasa principal Siraj Ud Doula and 15 others in Nusrat Jahan Rafi murder case.

Banaj Kumar Majumder, chief of the PBI, said this at a press conference held at its headquarters on Wednesday. 

The PBI will seek capital punishment for the accused in the murder case, he said. 

Earlier on Monday, the Dhaka Cyber Tribunal issued an arrest warrant against former Sonagazi officer-in-charge (OC) Moazzem Hossain for spreading video of Feni madrasa student Nusrat Jahan Rafi on social media.

On May 8, Moazzem was suspended over negligence of duty and attached to the office of DIG (Rangpur range).

Nusrat, a student of Sonagazi Islamia Senior Fazil Madrasa in Feni’s Sonagazi upazila, was set ablaze on April 6 allegedly for refusing to withdraw a case filed against madrasa principal Siraj Ud Doula for sexually harassing her on March 27.

Nusrat died on April 10 at Dhaka Medical College Hospital.
