A court in Dhaka has set Nov 25 for the submission of the probe report in a case lodged over killing of Taslima Begum Renu who was lynched by a mob at Dhaka’s Badda on Jul 20.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Jasim Uddin gave the order on Sunday (Oct 27) after the investigation officer failed to submit the report.
Renu, a single mother of two, was brutally beaten to death by a mob on suspicion of being a child abductor, in front of North Badda Government Primary School on the morning of Jul 20 where she had gone for admission queries.
Later, the victim’s nephew Nasir Uddin started a case over the death accusing 400 to 500 unidentified people.
Police have arrested 14 people over the matter including one Riya Begum who started the ruckus by terming Renu a child lifter, and Ibrahim Hossain Hridoy, the man who was seen most active in beating her.
