Five get death sentence

A Chittagong court on August 14, 2016 sentenced five persons -- Tipu, Saju, Shaon, Danny and Riad -- to death in the murder.

On April 27, 2012, Himu, a student of Summerfield School and College in Chittagong, was taken forcibly to the rooftop of a four-storey building in Panchlaish Residential Area, according to the case documents.

Himu was severely beaten there and at one stage, the convicts unleashed three ferocious dogs upon him. Later, he was pushed off the building.

While undergoing treatment at Chittagong Medical College Hospital, the victim described how he was tortured.

Himu breathed his last at the Square Hospitals in Dhaka on May 23, 2012.
