Inspector General of Police (IGP) Benazir Ahmed has asserted that punishment will be ensured for those who were involved in murder of ‘O’ Level student Anushka Noor Amin after rape at Kalabagan in the capital.

He made the remarks while responding to a question of a reporter at the annual general meeting (AGM) of Bangladesh Crime Reporters Association (CRAB) at Segunbagicha in the capital on Friday morning.

Following the CRAB’s AGM, Benazir Ahmed said: “We’ve arrested Anushka’s friend following the incident. The family of the victim also filed a case against him. It would be known after investigation whether any other persons were involved in it.”

The IGP said postmortem and DNA test are being carried out to ascertain whether the girl was raped or not. “Then we’ll be able to know whether the girl was raped before murder.”
