Dhaka: Oishee Rahman, daughter of special branch inspector Mahfuzur Rahman and his wife Swapna Rahman, appeared before the court, as verdict is to be delivered in a case filed against her over killing her parents in 2013.

A prison van brought Oishee to the court premises at about 11:00am on Thursday.

Oishee and her friend Asaduzzaman Jony are right now present before the Speedy Trial Tribunal 3 in Dhaka.

Earlier, on 4 November Judge Syed Ahmed of the Speedy Trial Tribunal 3 fixed 12 November for delivering the judgment, in presence of three accused in the case- the couple’s daughter Oishee Rahman, her friends Mizanur Rahman Rony and Asaduzzaman Johny.

Meanwhile, Oishee’s counsel Faruk Ahmed said the prosecution failed to prove the charges brought against his client and the witnesses who had testified earlier didn’t identify Oishee as killer.

The trial in the case over the killing of the couple started on 8 July, 2014, through recording depositions of the witnesses.

A total of 39 witnesses, out of 57, gave their depositions before the tribunal.

On 16 August, 2013, police recovered the bodies of SB Inspector Mahfuzur Rahman and his wife Swapna Rahman from their Chamelibagh residence in the capital.

Later, Oishee surrendered to the police confessing to her involvement in the killing.
 

Police also arrested her two friends
Asaduzzaman and Mizanur and domestic help of their house Khadiza Akhter Sumi in connection with the murder.

Mahfuzur’s brother Mohammad Mashiur Rahman Rubel filed a case with Paltan Police Station on 17 August.

Abul Khayer, inspector of Detective Branch of Police, submitted two separate charge-sheets—one against Oishee and her two friends on 9 March, 2014, and the other against Sumi as she was then a juvenile.
