Fairuz ‘suicide’ Probe body visits Cumilla residence, talks with her mother

Staff Reporter:

The five-member committee formed by Jagannath University (JnU) authority to investigate the death of their student Fairuz Abontika visited her village home in Comilla and talked to her mother Tahmina Shabnam on Friday.

The probe committee, headed by its Convenor, Prof Md Jakir Hossain, came to Abontika’s house in the Shasangachha area of Comilla City on Friday morning and talked to her mother for around two and half hours.

The committee included JnU Deputy Registrar Ranjan Kumar, Prof Dr Abul Hossain, Prof Mohammad Masud Billah and Dr Johar Ahmed.

Later, the committee also went to Comilla’s Kotwali Model police station and talked to the investigation officer of the case filed by Abontika’s mother on charge of torturing her to death.

The committee also talked to reporters about the progress of the investigation into the death of Abontika on March 15 in her Comilla residence.

Convenor Prof Jakir said: “We are carrying out an investigation. We learned a lot from Abontika’s mother after coming to the house of Abontika. We again will go to police, and take statements from police. Besides, we will take statements from several sources.”

Abontika’s mother said: “I told everything to the probe committee. They heard my words and wrote down those.”

Abontika, a student of the 2017-18 academic year of the JnU Law Department, was found hanging at her Comilla residence after accusing her classmate Amman and relieved assistant proctor Din Islam in a Facebook post around 10pm on March 15.

In the Facebook post before committing suicide, Abontika said that Amman Siddique and Din Islam would be responsible for her suicide.

Hours after the death of Abontika, massive protest broke out and continued till Saturday morning, demanding justice for the student.

In the face of the student movement, the university authorities were compelled to relieve the assistant proctor and suspend the student to assuage the movement.

Besides, the university administration formed a four-member probe committee.

On March 17, members of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) arrested the teacher and student from Dhaka on Saturday night.

On March 18, a Comilla court placed Jagannath University’s suspended student Raihan Siddique Amman and teacher Deen Islam on a two and one- day remand respectively in a case filed over the death of JnU student Fairuz Abontika.

After expiring the remand period, the Cumilla court sent them to jail and since then they have been in jail.
