According to PBI and sources in the case, ASI Raihanul Islam of the DB Metropolitan Police had a love affair with a ninth-class student at Mainakuthi Kachutari in the Rangpur metropolitan area. Raihanul took the girl for a walk on the morning of October 23 based on a love story. Later, Sumaiya Parveen, a tenant of Shahidullah Miah’s home in the Kadarkerpool area of Baharkachna in the ancient city, called her at Meghla’s home and raped her.
Later, the student left the house at 9 pm and again went to Sumaiya Parveen Meghla’s house and sought shelter. The next day, on the night of Saturday, October 24, Meghla called two young men to the house with the help of his girlfriend Survi Akhtar and gave them the girl in exchange for money. There he was gang-raped and fell ill.
After fleeing the scene, the victim arrived in the city on Sunday, October 25 to search for Raihanul. When the patrol police became suspicious there, the police called the girl and questioned her. The police admitted him to Rangpur Medical College Hospital for treatment. Subsequently, the police arrested the defendants from the Rangpur and Lalmonirhat areas.
The student’s father became the plaintiff in the incident and filed a rape case at the Haragachh Police Station charging two unidentified individuals, including police officer Raihanul Islam alias Raju.
