Police arrested main accused Shahid, son of one Nazir Uddin, in the father-daughter suicide case from Karnapur village in Sreepur upazila of Dhaka district on Tuesday night.
Officer-in-Charge of Sreepur Police Station Asaduzzaman said that police arrested Shahid at night.
Hazrat Ali (55) along with his daughter Ayesha Akhter (8) committed ‘suicide’ jumping before a running train near Sreepur Railway Station on Saturday morning having failed to get justice against attempt by a young man to violate his minor daughter, and grab his land. After the ‘suicide’, Hazrat Ali’s wife Halima Begum filed a case with the local police station naming Shahid as the main accused.
Halima claimed that their few neighbours, including Shahid, had long been trying to grab the land of Hazrat Ali. Not only that, an youth named Faruk tried to rape their daughter Ayesha about four months ago.
Hazrat Ali informed Goshinga Union Parishad member Abul Hossain about it. But he got depressed when the UP member did not take any step, Halima alleged.
On Monday, the National Human Rights Commission Chief Kazi Reazul Hoque visited the victim’s house and said it was ‘not an accident.’
Police arrested UP member Abul Hossain on Monday and produced him in a Dhaka court for police’s remand.
Police said that they were trying to arrest the other accused.
