Madrasa principal held for ‘raping’ six children
Instilling fear that they would rot in hell if they didn’t do what he asked them to do, a madrasa principal raped and attempted to rape 11 students over three years at Fatullah in Narayanganj, Rab said yesterday.
“It is foroz [mandatory] to obey the hujur [sir], otherwise it will be a sin and you may go to hell,” Rab said quoting arrested principal Mostafizur Rahman.
He also threatened to harm the victims’ families.
Rab-11’s Commanding Officer Lt Col Kazi Shomser Uddin at a press con-ference yesterday said, “During primary interrogation, Mostafizur con-fessed to raping six students and attempting to rape another five.”
Rab detained Mostafizur, 35, at the Darul Huda Women Madrasa and Or-phanage on Saturday after receiving complaints from two victims.
He used to live on the ground floor of the four-storey madrasa. He founded the madrasa six years ago, according to Rab.
Alep Uddin, assistant director and media officer of Rab-11, told The Daily Star that a case would be filed under the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act.
