Chittagong: ‘I heard the loud sound of bullets from home. I got out fast.
I saw several terrorists rush into the GNC autorickshaws and flee. I ran to where they came from. By then, everything will be over. Director Gopal Krishna Muhuri has been brutally murdered. What a horrible sight! ‘
19 years ago, on November 17, 2001, after hearing the verdict of the Appeals Division in the murder case of Gopal Krishna Muhuri, director of Nazirhat College, Jamalkhan, Chittagong, recalled the PP MA Nasser Special Court for Women and Child Abuse-2 (Chittagong).
At that time he was the councilor of the 21st Jamalkhan district of Chasik and the leader of the Nagar Awami League.
MA Naser told banglanews that less than 100 yards from my house is the house of director Gopal Krishna Muhuri. The Jamaat-Shibir terrorists came to the kill in a GNC autorickshaw. Jamal Khan parked the autorickshaw on the opposite side of the alley in Lichubagan (west side of Sikdar Hotel). They had heavy weapons in their hands.
The leader came running
MA Nasser said: “I informed Hasan Mahmud in Dhaka after the brutal murder.” He informed the village leader Sheikh Hasina about the matter. The leader issued a statement demanding justice for the murder. A few days later, the then mayor of Chittagong City Corporation (CHSIC) ABM Mohiuddin Chowdhury informed me in Chittagong that the leader would come to comfort the wife and family members of director Gopal Krishna Muhuri.
‘As soon as I received the news, I organized a quick repair of the road. The leader arrived as usual. The leader of the Awami League Sajeda Chowdhury, Bahauddin Nasim, our Mohiuddin Bhai and some local MPs were also present. I informed the scene leader of the terrorists’ departure. He not only brought human comfort to the Muhuri family. He also secured cooperation in the trial such as the brutal murder. Today the verdict of the appeal has been delivered. I’m happy about that. MA Naser added.
A virtual appeals court headed by Judge Mohammad Iman Ali rendered the verdict on Tuesday (October 8). Assistant Attorney General Amit Dasgupta represented the state in court. The three prisoners sentenced to death are Taslim Uddin alias Montu, Azam and Alamgir Kabir alias Baitta Alamgir.
On the day of the murder, his wife Uma Muhuri, the then Railway Audit Officer, filed a murder case with the Kotwali Police Station in Chittagong. Following the trial, the court sentenced Nasir alias Gittu Nasir, Azam, Alamgir Kabir alias Baitta Alamgir and Taslim Uddin alias Montu to death.
