Following an order by the Police Superintendent, Satkhira thana on Monday recorded a case against four persons in connection with alleged suicide of a girl on July 22. The accused are Arshad Ali, Habibur Rahman and Shafiqul Islam of Chowbaria village and Romjan Ali of Buichana village in the Sadar upazila. Tanzila Khatun, 24, daughter of late Kuddus Gazi of Komorpur village, and her mother had been living at her maternal grandfather's house at Chowbaria village in Sadar upazial since she lost his father at the age of two. Arshad Ali of the village developed an illicit relation with her, promising marriage. As she became pregnant, he forced her for abortion. As the matter became known, she committed suicide. Habibur Rahman and Shafiqul Islam were involved in the matter. Abul Hossain submitted an ejahar with Satkhira thana on July 23 accusing the four for "instigating" his niece to commit suicide. But police declined to record the case. He then appealed to the Police Superintendent. When contacted, the Sadar thana OC said, "We are trying to nab the four absconding persons accused in the case".
