The accused BCL activists are supporters of Ranjit Sarkar, former secretary for sports and youth affairs of the Awami League of Sylhet district.
The victim testified before Sylhet Metropolitan Magistrate, Third Court Magistrate Sharmin Khanam Nilar, on Sunday afternoon. At this time he gave a detailed description of the incident. The court recorded the statement of the housewife and gave it to the family.
Among those arrested, Saifur Rahman, the main defendant in the case, Arjun Laskar, the fourth defendant, and Rabiul Hasan, the president of the Muktijuddha Mancha MC College branch, were presented in court on Monday and held in pre-trial detention for five days.
