ডেথ রেফারেন্সের জন্য মামলার রায়সহ যাবতীয় নথি হাইকোর্টে

The High Court has received all case documents, including the verdict, for the death reference of a case involving the rape and brutal murder of an eight-year-old child in Pallabi, Dhaka. The trial court had sentenced two defendants, Sohel Rana and his wife Swapna Akhter, to death on June 7th for the crime. The verdict was delivered just 19 days after the incident, which occurred on May 19th. The child's dismembered body was found in a flat in Pallabi, from which Sohel Rana had fled by breaking through a toilet grill. His wife, Swapna Akhter, was apprehended at the scene, and Sohel Rana was later arrested in Narayanganj.

This case is significant as it involves the mandatory High Court review of a death sentence, a crucial step in the legal process for capital punishment in Bangladesh.
