The court has framed charges against 21 accused in the case of the murder of a businessman by crushing his head in front of Mitford Hospital in Dhaka. Today, Sunday (July 12), Acting Justice Mosaddek Minhaj of the 1st Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge’s Court of Dhaka ordered the framing of charges and set July 19 as the date for taking testimony. This information about the framing of charges was confirmed by the plaintiff’s lawyer Ziaul Haque.
\nThe accused in the charge sheet are – Mahmud Hasan Mohin, Alamgir, Monir alias Lomba Monir, Nannu alias Nannu Kazi, Sajib alias Sajib Bepari, Titon Gazi, Tarique Rahman Robin, Zahirul Islam, Parvez, Sagar, Rizwan Uddin alias Abhijit Basu, Imran Bepari, Hossain Bepari, Hossain Bepari, Hossain alias Abhijit Basu. Hossain, Sharafat alias Shafiul Islam, Hossain Chowkidar, Ziauddin Rajib, Sarwar Hossain Titu, Monir alias Chhota Monir, Apu Das.
\nOf these, the first 10 are in jail and the last 8 are absconding. Three accused are on bail. The three accused on bail appeared in court during the hearing. In addition, 10 accused who were in jail were presented in court during the hearing today. The lawyers applied for a hearing seeking their release. After the hearing, the court rejected the accused’s request for release and ordered the framing of charges.
\nOn the afternoon of July 9, 2025, Sohag alias Lal Chand, a scrap iron and old wire trader, was crushed to death by a concrete boulder with his body and head in front of Gate No. 3 of Mitford Hospital. Widespread criticism began when the video of the incident went viral on social media.
\nPolice and locals say that all those who were seen participating in the murder and whose names are emerging behind the scenes are known to them. Some of them were once business associates of Sohag. Those who know them cannot even imagine that someone could be killed in such a horrific way due to a business dispute.
\nIn this incident, Sohag’s elder sister Manjura Begum has filed a case as a plaintiff with the Kotwali Police Station. On December 8 last year, the investigating officer of the Kotwali Police Station, Inspector Moniruzzaman, filed a chargesheet against 21 accused.
\nHowever, due to some errors and omissions in the chargesheet, the application was approved on January 20 and further investigation of the case was ordered. After further investigation, a chargesheet was filed in the court against 21 people on May 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
