Mitu murder: Court orders case documents to be protected in judicial custody

On 5 June, 2016, Mahmuda Khanam Mitu was killed at the GEC junction area of Chattogram while walking her son to his school bus.

Her husband Babul Akhter filed a case with the Panchlaish police station. Following the investigation, the PBI gave its final report in the case on 12 May of this year. On that day, Mahmudar's father Mosharraf Hossain filed a case with the Panchlaish Police Station accusing eight people including Babul.

The PBI is currently investigating the case.

Meanwhile, the PBI gave its final report in the case filed by Babul in May last year. The court also directed the PBI to investigate the case filed by Babul. The PBI is now in charge of investigating two cases filed by Babul's father-in-law and Babul.
