Bangladesh seeks details from Indian govt

Bangladesh government has sought details from India regarding the death of Bangladeshi citizen Nargis Begum whose family alleges that she was raped and killed by criminals in Firozabad of Uttar Pradesh state about a month ago.
“We have already established contact with the department concerned of the government of India seeking details about the incident,” Salahuddin Noman Chowdhury, deputy high commissioner of the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi said.
Noman said, “New Delhi has not yet responded … we are waiting for a reply.”
Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh police Chief Pijush Sreebastab told BBC Bangla that Nargis was not raped. According to the post mortem report, she was killed after she was run over by a train, he claimed.
Nargis, 32, of Sonadanga in Khulna went to India on March 7 for treatment for herself and her visually impaired mother Anowara Begum. Her daughter Kakoli was also with them on the trip.
On March 9, the three started off for New Delhi from Kolkata by a train. When they reached a station around 3:30am the following day, some people approached them and said they had arrived in New Delhi, Nargis's mother Anowara told The Daily Star.
After they got down from the train hurriedly, leaving a bag behind, Nargis stepped back onto the train to collect it. When she returned, criminals waylaid her and took her away in an auto-rickshaw.
Uttar Pradesh police said they found the body of Nargis near the railway line in Firozabad district in the second week of March.
