HC seeks details of Minni’s arrest, interrogation Ayesha Siddiqa Minni at Barguna court

DHAKA: High Court asked lawyers of Ayesha Siddiqa Minni, wife of Barguna slain youth Rifat Sharif, to submit a supplementary application giving all information about legal steps taken against Minni.

On Monday (August 19), the HC bench of Justice M Enayetur Rahimn and Justice Md Mostafizur Rahman asked the lawyers to submit the application on Tuesday (August 20).

The HC bench wanted to know when Ayesha Siddiqa Minni was-- arrested, taken to court, and interrogated. It also asked to date when Superintend of Police (SP) had held the press conference about her involvement.

Advocate ZI Khan Panna moved for the petitioner while Deputy Attorney General Md. Sarwar Hossain Bappi stood for the state.

Earlier, lawyers of Ayesha Siddiqa Minni took the bail petition back from the HC in the case filed over the murder of Barguna youth Rifat Sharif.

Lawyers did it when an HC bench of Justice Sheikh Md Zakir Hossain and Justice Md Mostafizur Rahman was about to issue a rule on bail.

Judge Md. Asaduzzaman of district and sessions judge’s court of Barguna rejected the bail petition of Ayesha Siddiqa Minni on July 30.

Ayesha Siddiqa Minni was arrested for her alleged involvement in the murder as well for the sake of proper investigation of the case.

22-year-old Rifat Sharif, from Barguna sadar upazila, was hacked to death indiscriminately by Minni's alleged former husband Nayan Bond and his aides in broad daylight in front of Barguna Government College on June 26.

A shocking video of the brutal attack went viral on the social media, sparking widespread outrage and demand for justice from the countrymen.
