Probe report in Badda lynching case on Feb 20
DHAKA, Jan 22, 2020 (BSS) – A Dhaka court today set February 20 to submit
probe report in a case lodged over killing of one Taslima Begum Renu in a mob
beating in North Badda area in the capital.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Ziaur Rahman passed the order this morning
as the investigation officer failed to submit the report today.
Taslima Begum Renu, 40, a single-mother of two, was brutally beaten to
death by a mob on suspicion of being a child lifter, in front of North Badda
Government Primary School in the morning on July 20, 2019.
It was later learned that Renu went there to take information regarding
admission of her daughter Tahsin Tuba, 4, at that school.
Renu’s nephew Nasir Uddin filed the case with Badda Police Station against
400-500 unidentified people.
Police scrutinizing the vicious video clippings of the incident, managed
to arrest almost all the culprits, including Ria Khatun, 35, who started the
ruckus by terming Renu a child lifter, and Ibrahim Hossain Hridoy, the man
who was seen most active in beating Renu, even thrashing her seemingly
lifeless body.
