A BENGALI settler
youth named Eman Ali was arrested on Friday 2 February for attempting to rape a
Jumma girl in Bongoltoli village under Baghaihcari Upazila, Rangamati district.
The girl had just
gone to bed after reading her class books when the would-be rapist Eman Ali, a
tubewell mechanic, attacked her.
Her father told chtnews.com:
‘It was about 10:45 p. m. I heard sounds of a desperate tussle coming from my
daughter’s room, so I went there and saw Eman Ali pressed her mouth and throat
with his hands.’
Eman was caught with
the help of the elders and youths of the village and then handed over to the
police.
The victim’s father
further said that Eman Ali, a resident of Amarpur village under Ultachari Union
in Panchari Upazila and a son of Abdul Latif, was there to dig a tubewell under
an ADB project near his house.
The work was
completed and Eman Ali was to leave on Saturday morning.
