Hasina. Alhamdulillah, I’m so happy with the verdict,” she said.

My family has cried for more than six months (since Nusrat murder),” Musa told reporters. “We have been waiting for this day.”
“All of the accused were sentenced to death today [Thursday],” he said. “Nusrat’s soul will now rest in peace.”
Expressing satisfaction over the verdict in Nusrat murder case, her brother Mahmudul Hasan Noman on Thursday demanded immediate execution of the judgment.
He also thanked Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina after the verdict that awarded death penalty to all the 16 people, including sacked sonagazi madrasa Principal Siraj Ud Doula and Awami League leader Ruhul Amin.

Nusrat’s family also demanded security until execution of the verdict in the sensational murder case in which all sixteen accused were sentenced to death by a Feni tribunal. Nusrat Jahan Rafi’s elder brother Mahmudul Hasan Noman said, “Convicts have openly threatened us on the Feni court premises. Besides, they’re giving us threats in other ways,” reports our Feni Correspondent.
After the verdict on the Feni court premises on Thursday (October 24), Noman said, “We hope the government will protect us until the verdict is executed.”
