Sylhet college girl Khadiza Akter Nargis, who was brutally hacked by Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) leader Badrul Alam, will recover gradually, hope relatives.
Talking to reporters at Square Hospitals Ltd, where she was under treatment, on Sunday, Khadiza’s uncle Faizul Alam said the college girl is improving slowly. “Doctors say she will recover slowly,” he said.He also demanded highest punishment of Badrul.
Earlier on Saturday, Dr AM Rezaus Sattar, associate consultant of the Neurosurgery Department of Square Hospitals, said Khadiza’s survival chance is high, but it would take time for her to recover fully. “Khadiza’s condition slightly improved,” the doctor had said after a 96-hour observation of Khadiza under life support at the hospital.
Khadiza, a 2nd year degree student of Sylhet Govt Mohila College, was stabbed by Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST) unit BCL leader Badrul Alam on her way home from MC College after appearing at an examination on October 3, following the refusal of his proposal for having a love affair with him.
Hearing the victim’s screams, other students rescued Khadiza and caught Badrul from the spot and handed him over to police after giving him a good thrashing.
Khadiza was first taken to Sylhet Osmani Medical College Hospital from where she was moved to Dhaka as her condition deteriorated. She is now undergoing treatment at the Square Hospitals.
