Out of forty witnesses, 28 testified to the court in the case. Police produced accused Parimal Joydhar in the court on the occasion.
Special Public Prosecutor Forkan Miah told newsmen that they were able to prove the allegation against Parimal and demanded punishment for him.
In the contrary, defence counsel Mahfuz Miah claimed that the prosecution failed to prove the allegation and, as such the accused would get justice from the tribunal.
