DHAKA, March 2, 2021 (BSS) – A court here today set March 21 for holding
hearing on charge framing against Tanvir Iftekhar Dihan, the sole accused in
a case filled over raping and subsequently murdering a schoolgirl in
capital’s Kalabagan area.
Today was set for the submission of the probe report. But, Inspector of
Kalabagan police station AFM Asaduzzaman could not submit the report today.
So, Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Begum Yasmin Ara set the new date for
hearing.
On January 8, Dihan, in the court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mamunur
Rashid, gave a confessional statement over the rape-murder incident.

filed the case with Kalabagan police station.
According to the case documents, Dihan called and took the girl to his
Lake Circus Road flat and raped her there on January 7. As the girl fell sick

Khan Modern Hospital, where the attending doctors declared her dead.
Being informed by the hospital authorities, police detained Dihan along
with his three friends.
