Jailed for patricide
A court here on Wednesday convicted a man and sentenced him to life term imprisonment for killing his father in 2006. The convict was identified as Forkan Bhuinya, 45, son of Mohammad Ali, resident of village Bholabo in Rupganj upazila. The court also fined the convict Tk 10,000, in default, to suffer one year more RI. According to the prosecution Forkan borrowed Tk 10,000 from his neighbours recently and started pressuring his father to repay the money. Forkan on December 6, 2007 picked up a quarrel with his father over the issue and at one stage beat him to death. Later, Forkan's younger brother Emran Bhuiyan filed a case with the Rupganj police station.
