Cook arrested from BDR outpost

Romiza, ten-year-old daughter of Sadikul Islam, was allegedly kidnapped, raped and murdered when she went out of her home for selling cakes in the early hours on November 22.

A portion of her dress was found from a makeshift house of the BDR outpost after her slain body was recovered seven yards off the sentry post.

Romiza's father Sadikul Islam, a day labourer, told police of his suspicion about the involvement of BDR members in the incident.

Investigating Officer Ataur Rahman said police would interrogate three BDR members who were on duty at that night.

Forensic experts of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital primarily confirmed Romiza's rape and murder after autopsy.

Contacted over phone, commanding officer of 10 battalion BDR Lt. Col. Wahed, however, denied the allegation.
