Torture on schoolboy in police custody
A three-member probe committee has submitted its report to the superintendent of police (SP) against the officer in-charge of Rajapur Police Station for his involvement in torturing a SSC examinee.
The report found proof of the allegations, sources said.
Seeing newspapers reports on torture on the SSC examinee at Rajapur police custody for two nights, SP Md Majid Ali formed the committee, headed by ASP Md. Mohidul Islam to investigate the allegations against OC Md Nazrul Islam.
The committee submitted its report on Wednesday 10 days after the investigation, said the ASP.
The OC did not give any written comments to the committee although it asked him for giving his statements about the allegations, he said.
“Some allegations have been proved against the OC according to the report”, said the SP, adding that departmental action would be taken after getting his statement.
On March 28 and 29, Russel, 15, a SSC examinee of Rajapur Pilot High School was brutally tortured in the police custody and he was forced to marry a girl.
Later, Russel was produced before a mobile court, led by Executive Magistrate Mahabuba Aktar, which sentenced him to six months' imprisonment.
