Parvina's killers still remain scot-free

Six days have elapsed since the recovery of a woman's body in Sadar upazila, but police are yet to trace her killers.
Police recovered Parvina Khatun's body, with around 28 stab wounds in the torso, from the upazila's Rahmatpur rail gate point on Monday morning and sent it to Jessore Medical College Hospital for autopsy.
The previous evening, parvina's husband Mohammad Khokon went to her father's residence in Enayetpur village in Jhenidah's Kaliganj upazila and brought her to his residence in Baliaghata in Jessore Sadar upazila, according to the case statement.
Parvina's brother, Abdus Sattar, who filed the case, said that his sister had been staying at her father's residence since February 13, after Khokon beat up and forced Parvina out of his house.
Khokon used to frequently torture her for dowry since they got married four years ago. It was the second marriage for both of them, added Sattar.
The case, filed with Kotwali Police Station, accuses Khokon, son of Jaigir Fokir; his sister Rebeka Khatun, his nephew Rassel, son of Abdul Khalique; and three/four unnamed others.
“Police are showing indifference to the case,” said Sattar.
However, Kotwali Police Station sub-inspector Jamal Uddin said, they have already launched drives to arrest the accused.
