DHAKA, March 10, 2021 (BSS) – A Dhaka court today placed bus driver Md Sabuj, 25, and his helper Md Nahid, 19, on two-day remand each in a case
lodged over throwing a speech-impaired woman from a moving bus in Keraniganj,
Dhaka.

Dhaka Senior Judicial Magistrate Fairus Tasnim passed the order as police
produced the duo before the court and pleaded to place them on seven-day
remand each.

Rapid Action Battalion (RAB)-10 arrested the two in the morning of March
9.

The burkha-clad woman was thrown off from the moving bus of N Mullick
Paribahan in the morning of March 7 as she was unable to pay the fare. A
video of the incident surfaced online, where the poor woman was seen lying on
the ground and groaning in pain.

Later, she wrote down her ordeal on a piece of tiles, revealing the whole
incident.
