A Dhaka court has sentenced Fatema Begum, also known as Shilpi, to death for killing her husband and dismembering his body into six parts in the capital’s Mohakhali area five years ago. The verdict was delivered on Thursday afternoon by Dhaka’s 16th Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge Nazmun Nahar Nipu. The court also imposed a seven-year prison term, a fine of 10,000 taka, and an additional three months of imprisonment for concealing the body.
According to the case details, on May 30, 2021, police recovered a headless body from a drum in Mohakhali’s Amtoli area and later found the victim’s severed limbs in separate locations. Fatema was arrested within 12 hours of the discovery. She confessed to killing her husband, Moyna Mia alias Shakil, following disputes over money and his multiple marriages. Fatema drugged him, slit his throat, and disposed of the body parts across different areas using a rented rickshaw.
The case was filed by Moyna Mia’s second wife, Nasrin. After investigation by the Detective Branch, a charge sheet was submitted in October 2022, and the trial began in March 2023, during which 17 of 26 witnesses testified.
