Man jailed right before marrying a child
2014-11-08
[Dhaka Tribune] A young man at Ganga Narayanpur village in Bhaatgram union was sentenced to prison for a month on charges of marrying a fifth-grader on Thursday.
A ten year old?
Md Hazrat Ali, 21, son of Munsur Ali of Sardar Para in Dhaperhaat union, was awarded the jail sentence by Upazila Nirbahi Officer Md Ahsan Habib, also a mobile court judge.
The child was still burping milk.
Sadullapur cop shoppe Officer-in-Charge Latiful Islam said the upazila nirbahi officer, along with police, arrived at the wedding venue minutes before Hazrat was about to sign the document to marry Rahima Khatun.
"And the wedding was just ruined!"
"The girl is the daughter of Rafiqul Islam of the village and studies at Ganga Narayanpur Government Primary School. Her father fled quickly after seeing the upazia nirbahi officer's car while we detained Hazrat and brought him to the cop shoppe," he said.

Hazrat was given the jail sentence at the cop shoppe around 9:30pm.

The man was sent to Gaibandha district prison this afternoon, Latiful said yesterday.

She'll wait, for we Muslims are hardy.
My missus won't own me:
The boys here have thrown me
One hell of a bachelor party!"
