Nusrat murder case verdict Oct 24

A Feni court has fixed October 24 for delivering its verdict in the sensational and much-talked murder case of madrasa student Nusrat Jahan Rafi.

Judge Mamunur Rashed of Women and Child Repression Prevention Court fixed the date on Monday.

Nusrat, a student of Sonagazi Islamia Senior Fazil Madrasa, was set ablaze on April 6 allegedly for refusing to withdraw a case filed against the principal for sexually harassing her.

Later, he was set afire on the roof of the madrasa's administration building before she could sit for the Alim exam equivalent to HSC on April 6.

Nusrat lost her battle for life on April 10, five days after the incident.
