Justice for Felani
Felani Khatun, a 15 year old Bangladeshi girl became the worst ever victim of border killing in history when she tried to cross the Bangladesh-India border on 7 January 2011. The Indian authorities failed to provide justice at the first trial, thanks to their indifference. The Indian court acquitted Amiya Ghosh, the killer of Felani, of the charge of killing.
The retrial of Felani killing has started again as the verdict of the first trial was rejected by Felani's father. We, the people of Bangladesh demand a fair trial this time. Our government should play a more active role in this regard.
