Rajon killing: Court orders to confiscate properties of 3 accused

The court accepts the charge sheet, acquits two from the charges

A Sylhet court today ordered the authorities concerned to confiscate all the movable properties of three persons, including prime accused Kamrul Islam, in the murder case of 13-year-old Samiul Islam Rajon.

The two other accused are Shamim, brother of Kamrul, and Pavel, our Moulvibazar correspondent reports quoting Shawkat Chowdhury, lawyer for Rajon's father.

Judge Shahedul Karim of Metropolitan Magistrate Court of Sylhet camp up with the order after accepting the charge sheet pressed against 13 the accused including Kamrul, Shamim and Pavel.

The court fixed August 31 for the hearing on the charge framing, Public Prosecutor Mizbah Uddin Shiraj, told our Moulvibazar correspondent.

Apart from the three, the other accused are: Muhit Alam, Ali Haider, Nurul Amin, Dulal Ahmed, Nur Mia, Ayaz Ali, Badal, Firoz Ali, Ruhul Amin and Asmat Ali.

In the charge sheet submitted to the court on August 16, police showed three of the accused, including Kamrul, absconding and 10 others as arrested.

Meanwhile, the court also acquitted Lipi Begum and Ismail Hossain Ablush from the charge sheet as investigation officer of the case told the court that their involvement was not found in the crime.

The prime accused Kamrul fled to Saudi Arabia soon after the incident. He was later detained by Saudi police. Despite Bangladesh government's diplomatic efforts to bring him back, the Saudi authorities are yet to clarify when they will repatriate him.

On July 8, thirteen-year-old Rajon was beaten to death by Kamrul and several other brutes in Kumargaon Bus Stand area of Sylhet Sadar upazila.

Rajon's "crime", they claimed, was trying to steal a rickshaw van. Even one of culprits filmed the murder incident on a mobile phone and shared it on the social media.

The sickening torture video shook the nation to its core and stirred outcries in the social network and the mainstream media.

Tied to a pole, the boy screamed for help, cried for water and begged for his life. But the group showed no mercy. They laughed, joked and filmed their madness to show it off to people.

The boy died of brain haemorrhage. His body bore 64 injury marks.

After the killing, the culprits were taking his body on a microbus to dump it in a secluded place, but the locals spotted them and managed to catch one of them. The police recovered the body from the microbus.

A murder case was filed with Jalalabad Police Station on July 8.
