The plaintiff then woke up and went to his daughter’s room without looking at her and went to get her shoes and veil. After searching, he rescued his daughter from the house’s betel garden in a bloody state.
According to judicial sources, Emadul Haque, witness number four in the case, raped the housewife’s daughter. He then blamed his opponents Mohsin and Moazzem for the rape due to previous hostilities. And he took the help of the housewife to catch the two innocent accused.
The plaintiff later complained to the court that Emadul, a witness in the case, had raped his daughter. After that, the rape accusations were directed at his opponents Mohsin and Moazzem.
