A Dhaka court has placed Farzana Zaman Neha on a five-day remand for her alleged involvement in the death of a University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) student’s rape and murder at Mohammadpur in Dhaka.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Satyabrata Sikder passed the order on Friday after the investigation officer sought a seven-day remand for Neha.
Earlier on February 4, accused Neha was arrested as she had remained fugitive after the incident.
Earlier on February 1, a Dhaka court placed on a five-day remand three friends- Murtoja Raihan, (21) Tafsir, (21) and Nuhat Alam Coco, (22) of the female ULAB student who had allegedly been raped and murdered.
The victim Neha’s father alleged that his 22-year-old daughter had been taken to a restaurant at Uttara by Murtoja and Arafat on January 28 and she had fallen sick as they had forced her to excessive alcohol consumption.
Later, Neha was taken to a flat in Mohammadpur where Murtoja Raihan raped her. Neha later died while undergoing treatment at a city hospital.
