According to the police, Raihan Ahmed (34) from the Akhalia area of Sylhet city was transferred to the Bandarbazar outpost on 10 October and tortured. The next day he died. His wife Tahmina Akhter filed a case with the Kotwali Police Station under the Prevention of Deaths Act. An investigative committee of the metropolitan police found the truth of the torture.
On October 12, four people, including SI Akbar, in charge of the outpost, were suspended and three were removed. On October 13, Akbar escaped from police custody. The police arrested him 26 days later. The next day, Akbar was held in pre-trial detention for seven days and interrogated by the Police Investigation Office (PBI). Akbar was sent to jail last Tuesday after his pretrial detention.
Kanaighat Police Station OC Shamsuddoha said Thursday night that the operation took place in a mountainous area about 300 feet high in the Dona border area, according to information provided by Akbar in pre-trial detention. Two mobile phones, three SIM cards, some clothes and a 20 rupee note were recovered there. These will be delivered to the investigating agency as evidence of the case.
