Failed suitor throws acid on 2 sisters
2009-06-21
Two sisters sustained serious burn injuries with acid thrown by a rejected suitor of one of them Friday night. The culprit, Akash of Bogra Sadar upazila, threw acid when the two sisters were sleeping at their Ranachandi Dakkhinpara village home in Kishoreganj upazila of the district, said family members and locals.

The victims -- Mahmuda Aktar Shimu, 16, and Masuda Aktar Shanto, 22, -- are daughters of Abdul Mannan, a primary school teacher.

Akash became furious as Shimu, a student of Hazipara Hafizia Madrasa in Rangpur district, rejected his 'offer for love and marriage'.
The cad did not offer to the girl's father, or have his father offer for him? Of course a proper young woman would spurn his suit, were she ever so interested. The cad should be horsewhipped through the streets for his presumption, never mind the acid attack.
Shimu came to her village home on Friday and slept with her elder sister Shanto at night when Akash threw acid through the window and fled away before family members and neighbours rushed there hearing scream. Following Shimu, Akash had come to the village that day, sources said.

With serious injuries on the face and other parts of body, the two sisters were rushed to Rangpur Medical College Hospital. They were transferred to the burn unit of Dhaka Medical College Hospital yesterday noon.
Charge the cad's father for the costs of the girls' medical treatment. We simply cannot allow such behaviour in the very proper Ranachandi Dakkhinpara village in Kishoreganj upazila, wherever that is.
The officer-in-charge of Kishoreganj Police Station said preparation was on to file a case in this connection.

#3  Getting ready to make preparations to file a case which might lead to an investigation.....all in good time. All in good time you see. Yes, yes, very urgent.

So, B, you've been to Pakistan, India and Bangladesh then. That is pretty much how it is. Court cases can drag on for years, decades even.

#2  My question is who is the case going to be against?

The Cad or the daughter who had the presumption to spurn his offer of a lifetime of legalized rape?
