The police have arrested a father on charges of raping his girl (11) in Mirzapur, Tangail.

He was arrested from Feni district headquarters last night.

The permanent residence of the arrested Mozammel Hossain is in Tetulia Dakshinpara of Mithapukur police station in Rangpur district. He lives in a rented tin shed house in Gorai Balur Math area of ​​Mirzapur with his wife, a garment worker, and his daughter, a fifth-grade student.

According to the complaint, Mozammel drives a CNG-powered auto-rickshaw on the Gorai-Sakhipur road. His wife works at the Gorai South-East Textile Factory. On March 27, around 6 am, the mother left the baby girl at home and went to work. When the child returned home for lunch, he complained of pain in sensitive areas of his body. Hearing this, the mother bought painkillers and gave her painkillers.

But the pain did not subside for several days. On April 5, the girl told her mother that her father had raped her several times when she was alone at home. The pain started from there. Her father threatened to kill her if she told anyone. Hearing the incident, the child’s mother filed a rape case of her daugther at Mirzapur Police Station on the same day in the name of her husband Mozammel Hossain.

Meanwhile, Mozammel hid his face after hearing about the case. Based on a secret tip-off, the police conducted a drive and arrested him from Feni district headquarters on Thursday night.

In this regard, Mirzapur Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Mosharraf Hossain said that after receiving the complaint, the child was medically examined and the rape was confirmed, and a case was registered.

He said that Mozammel was arrested from Feni district headquarters on the basis of a secret tip-off and was sent to Tangail jail through the court on Friday morning.
