Probe report in Badda lynching case on March 23
DHAKA, Feb 20, 2020 (BSS) – A Dhaka court today set March 23 to submit
probe report in a case lodged over killing of Taslima Begum Renu in a mob
beating in North Badda area in the capital last year.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mohammad Jasim passed the order this
morning as the investigation officer failed to submit the report today.
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.
