Dhaka: Doctors at the Forensic Department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital in a test found the evidence of gang-rape of a 22-year-old indigenous woman in a moving microbus in the capital on Thursday.

Professor Mohammad Habibuzzaman Chowdhury, Chairman of the Forensic Department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), said the doctors have found the evidence of gang-rape through the medical test conducted here on Saturday.

The other medical reports, including the test for determining her age, will be available within a week, he said.

Amid protests by various quarters seeking the arrest of Pahela Baishakh sex offenders at Dhaka University, the indigenous woman was gang-raped in a moving microbus in the capital on Thursday night. She filed a case on Friday afternoon against five miscreants, seeking justice.

Quoting the case statement, sub-inspector of Bhatara Police Station Khurshed told UNB that the Garo woman was dragged into the microbus by the miscreants from Kuril Bus Stand around 9:30pm on Thursday as she was waiting for transport to return home after the day’s work at a showroom in the area.

After the abduction of the victim, the microbus kept running around the locality and the miscreants, numbering five, raped her one after another.

Later, the miscreants threw her out of the bus at Jasimuddin Road in Uttara on Thursday midnight when local people rescued her and took her to a local hospital, according to the case statement.
