A Dhaka court has sentenced Sohel Rana and his wife Swapna Khatun to death for the rape and murder of schoolgirl Ramisa Akter in Pallabi. The verdict was delivered on Sunday, June 7, 2026, by Judge Masrur Salehin of the Dhaka Metropolitan Tribunal for the Suppression of Violence Against Children. Ramisa’s father, Abdul Hannan Molla, expressed satisfaction with the ruling and urged for its swift execution, thanking all who supported his family during the case.
The court observed that evidence confirmed rape and multiple injuries before the killing, and noted that Sohel voluntarily confessed without later retracting his statement. Swapna was found to have helped her husband escape. The trial concluded in just four working days, with heightened security around the court during the verdict announcement. The case stemmed from the May 19, 2026, incident when Ramisa, a second-grade student, was lured into the couple’s home and later found murdered.
Police arrested Swapna at the scene and later detained Sohel in Narayanganj using digital tracking. Ramisa’s father filed the case at Pallabi Police Station on May 20, 2026.
