The much-awaited verdict of the two teachers of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College, in a case filed for provoking Aritri Adhikary, a ninth-grader of the institution, to kill herself, will be delivered today (Thursday).
Judge Abdullah Al Mamun of Dhaka 12th Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge Court is scheduled to announce the verdict.
The two accused are — former acting principal of the school Nazneen Ferdous and morning shift in-charge of the school’s Bailey Road branch Zinat Akhtar. They have been suspended by the institution after filing the case.
Dhaka 3rd Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge Court on July 10, 2019, framed charges against the two teachers, initiating the trial officially.
Earlier on April 30, 2019, Dhaka metropolitan magistrate Sadbir Yasir Ahsan Chowdhury accepted the charge sheet filed in the case.
The court also allowed the investigation officer’s plea to drop the name of Aritri’s class teacher Hasna Hena from the case as allegations brought against her were not found true in the probe.
Police on March 28, 2019, filed the charge sheet against the then acting principal of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College Nazneen Ferdous and morning shift in-charge of the school’s Bailey Road branch Zinat Akhtar.
