Jhenaidah Correspondent :
Family members of late Police Sub-Inspector Akram Hossain in a press conference at Jhenaidah Press Club on Wednesday complained that conspiracy was behind the road accident and subsequently death of SI Akram. His wife Banni and retired Police Superintendent Babul Aktar might have their hands.
A written statement read out by his sister Jannat Ara Parvin Rini, revealed the story.
The statement said, Banni, wife of the SI Akram, had an affair with SP Babul before their marriage when Babul’s father was in the police service  
and Banani alias Banni’s father in Khulna BRDB, both residing in the same area. But Banni was married to Akram on January 13 of 2005. On the other hand, Babul married Mitu as per family decision.
Rini said, after a child was born, Babul. Kept mother and child in the residence of Laboni, sister of Babul. The relation between them became warmer after SI Akram left Bangladesh for abroad in a peace mission.
As per the advice of Babul, Banni asked Akram to go to Jhenaidah via the Bangabandhu Bridge at Sirajganj. When Akram arrived near the Bardah bridge in Sailkupa upazila under Jhenaidah district in the evening of December 28 in 2014, he was reportedly injured in a road accident. Akram was first rushed to Jhenaidah Sadar Hospital. Health condition deteriorating, he was referred to Faridpur Medical College Hospital and then to Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH).
The statement said, when condition of Akram was improving at Intensive Care Unit of the DMCH, Banni secretly swallowed poison with soup during the treatment there on January 13 in 2015 with the motive of killing him. Banni received the body of her husband Akram without any post mortem, and the police said that road accident was the reason behind the death. The corpse was buried at Jhenaidah.
The family members of Akram could not understand the mysterious absence of Akram Hossain’s wife Banni and her father’s family during the burial ceremony at Jhenaidah. Moreover, the family members were residing at Magura resident of Babul Aktar. The matter sparked reaction among the family members of Akram and they were suspecting that Banni might kill Akram due to her illicit affair with the police super Babul of Sailkupa.
Rini said, the post mortem conducting physicians said there were marks of sharp injuries in the head. When the family members of Akram went to Jhenaidah Sadar Police Station, the police refused recording the case. Further, the then superintendent of Jhenaidah police did no take any step of registering the case.
Finding no other alternative, the family filed a case with a Jhenaidah court against Babul Aktar, Banni and her cousin Sadimul Islam Moon. Not only that, SP Babul Aktar influenced the post mortem report, Rini said. The family members suspected that Babul Aktar might have hand in the killing of her wife Mitu, gunned down near her resident in Chittagong.
The family members demanded exemplary punishment to Banni, Babul Aktar and others involved with the killing of SI Akram Hossain. The deceased’s sisters and some of the close relatives were present during the press conference.
