The verdict in the widely discussed gang rape case at Sylhet’s MC College dormitory will be announced on July 14, five years after the incident. The decision was set by Judge Swapan Kumar Sarkar of the Sylhet Speedy Trial Tribunal following the completion of arguments from both prosecution and defense. The case involves members of a banned faction of the student organization Chhatra League, accused of assaulting a newlywed woman after tying up her husband.
According to court sources, the case was transferred from the Women and Children Tribunal to the Speedy Trial Tribunal in May of the previous year, where testimony from 24 witnesses was recorded. The witnesses included the victim, her husband, the investigating officer, a magistrate, and medical experts. DNA tests matched evidence with six of the eight accused. The prosecution expressed some dissatisfaction over inconsistencies in the plaintiff’s testimony.
The case stems from a 2020 incident when the couple was attacked near MC College, and the woman was assaulted inside the dormitory. Police and RAB arrested the suspects within three days, and a charge sheet was filed in December 2021.
