| 2016-05-21 |
| [Dhaka Tribune] Yaar Hossain, father of Sohagi Jahan Tonu, has demanded legal action against the medical examiners who conducted the first autopsy of his daughter, claiming that they tried to hide evidence related to her murder. Speaking with the Dhaka Tribune yesterday evening, Yaar said: "The doctors who conducted Tonu’s first post-mortem examination claimed that they had found no evidence that she had been raped before being murdered. "But when the CID ran a DNA test, they found evidence that she had been raped by three men before she was killed." Two months have passed since Tonu’s body was found in Comilla cantonment area. Asked if he was satisfied with the progress of the investigation, Yaar said: "We are now. There was no significant development for a while, but now that the CID has revealed the results of the DNA test, we are hopeful that we will get justice. "I believe that the doctors who conducted the first autopsy committed some sort of irregularities. I demand that the CID take legal actions against them." Dr Kamda Prasad Saha, head of the forensics department at Comilla Medical College, refused to comment on the DNA test results when the Dhaka Tribune contacted him. |
