Staff Reporter :
Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) has now been assigned to investigate the murder of Cumilla’s Victoria College student Sohagi Jahan Tonu.
After transferring the responsibility from police and Detective Branch, Criminal Investigation Department (CID) was given the charge of the investigation for third time. And lastly, the PBI has been entrusted with the responsibility. CID’s Additional Superintendent of Police Enamul Haque on Tuesday confirmed media about the transfer of the case.
Although the case has been shifted for the third time, neither any headway has been made to solve the mystery behind the murder nor the killers were identified.  
Tonu’s family and local elite became frustrated and cast doubts of getting justice for the murdered college student.
However, Tonu’s father Yaar Hossain said they did not know about the transfer of the case to the PBI from the CID.
Sohagi Jahan Tonu, 19, a second year history student of Cumilla Victoria College and a member of Victoria College Theatre, went missing on March 20, hours after she had gone out of her house at Cumilla Mainamati Cantonment for private tuition.
Later, Tonu’s father Yaar Hossain found his daughter lying senseless with severe injuries in her body in a bush adjacent to their house.
She was then whisked off to Combined Military Hospital where doctors declared her dead.
