A court in Dhaka has sent a sub-inspector (SI) to jail in a rape case filed with the capital's Sher-e-Bangla Nagar police.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Sadbir Yasir Ahsan passed the order after SI Abdur Rakib Khan Bappy of Mirpur police was produced before it on Friday (Jan 3), Sher-e-Bangla Nagar police OC Jane Al Fakir told Bangla Tribune.
The court set Jan 7 for hearing in the case, the OC added.
On Thursday (Jan 2), SI Bappy was arrested from the capital's Agargaon Taltola on rape charges after a woman sued him in Sher-e-Bangla Nagar police.
The woman alleged that Rakib had a relationship with her and promised to marry her. But, he didn't do so.
The victim has been sent to the Dhaka Medical College Hospital's One-Stop Crisis Centre for a medical test.
