A Dhaka court on Tuesday sentenced three people to death in a case lodged over the abduction and murder of Mirpur Bangla College student Nurul Amin in 2022.
The convicts are Md Ariful Islam, Md Imran Hossain and Md Yamin Mollah.
Judge Masud Karim of Dhaka speedy trial tribunal-3 pronounced the judgment in the presence of Ariful and Imran. Yamin, who was still at large after coming out of jail on bail, was tried in absentia. The court on the same day also issued an arrest warrant against him.
Nurul Amin went missing and his uncle filed a general diary regarding this with Darus Salam police station on January 2, 2022. After that, the abductors called him and demanded Tk 1,00,00,000 in ransom.
Detective branch of police on January 4 managed to detain three abductors, who in primary interrogation confessed abducting and later killing Topu in Imran鈥檚 Mirpur Beribadh house.
The trio later gave confessional statements at the court also.
