A Cumilla court has ordered the issuance of an Interpol red notice against retired sergeant Zahiduzzaman and former soldier Shahin Alam, the main suspects in the murder of Sohagi Jahan Tonu, a student and theatre activist of Cumilla Victoria Government College. The directive was given on June 8 by Senior Judicial Magistrate Muminul Haque of Cumilla’s 1st Amli Court. Court police inspector Mohammad Mamunur Rashid confirmed the order in the evening.
According to court sources, the order followed information obtained from Hafizur Rahman, a former warrant officer of Cumilla Cantonment’s Static Signal unit, who was arrested earlier and is now in Cumilla Central Jail. His interrogation reportedly revealed evidence of the presence and involvement of Zahiduzzaman and Shahin Alam at the crime scene. Shahin Alam has fled to Kuwait, while Zahiduzzaman’s whereabouts remain unknown.
The investigating officer, PBI Inspector Tariqul Islam, was instructed to take necessary steps to bring the fugitives under the law through Interpol. The case continues as part of regular judicial proceedings.
