Siam alias Imon, arrested in connection with the murder of schoolgirl Shahriar Sharmin Binti in Hazaribagh, has confessed to the crime before a Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate court on Friday, February 27, 2026. The confession was recorded by Magistrate Dilruba Afroz Tithi, confirmed by SI Abul Basar of the prosecution division. Siam was arrested by the Detective Branch police on Thursday morning from the Kathalbagan area and later produced before the court, where he voluntarily admitted his involvement.

According to the case details, Binti, a student of Rayerbazar High School, was attacked on Wednesday night near Haidar Hotel in Hazaribagh. CCTV footage showed her walking with Siam shortly before the incident. During an argument, Siam allegedly stabbed her multiple times with a sharp knife and fled the scene.
