Attorney General Barrister Ruhul Kudddus Kajol said the swift verdict in the Pallabi child rape and murder case would remain a milestone for the judiciary. He made the remark on Sunday afternoon at the Dhaka Metropolitan Court premises after the judgment was announced. Expressing satisfaction, he noted that the investigation officer had submitted the report promptly, preventing any delay in the trial. Kajol added that once the reference and paper book arrive from the trial court, the legal process in the higher court will begin quickly.
Earlier in the day, Judge Masrur Salehin of the Child Violence Prevention Tribunal sentenced the main accused, Sohel Rana, and his wife, Swapna Akter, to death for raping and murdering a schoolgirl in Pallabi. The verdict came just 19 days after the killing. Tight security was maintained around the court during the proceedings.
The case drew attention for its unprecedented speed, with the charge sheet filed on May 24 and the trial completed within six working days, including testimony from 16 witnesses in a single day.
