Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has directed the authorities concerned
to build houses for the families of the four children who were brutally
killed at a Habiganj village recently.
“The prime minister also asked the authorities concerned to construct
a classroom and a library at Sundrateki Government Primary School in
Bahubal upazila, where three of the four kids studied, in their
memories,” said PM's Deputy Press Secretary Ashraful Alam Khokan.
He said the PM ordered Director General (admin) of the Prime
Minister's Office Kabir Bin Anwar to take necessary steps in this regard
following a request from female lawmaker Amatul Kibria Keya Chowdhury.
As per the order of the PM, Anwar directed Bahubal Upazila Nirbahi
Officer Saiful Islam to take necessary initiatives for constructing
houses on the paternal land of the four ill-fated boys and a classroom
and a library at Sundrateki Government Primary School.
The Bahubal UNO confirmed the BSS of receiving the PMO directives.
Four children -- Monir Miah, 7, Zakaria Shuvo, 8, Mohammad Tajel
Miah, 10, and Ismail Miah, 10 -- disappeared on February 12 after they
went to watch a football match at a nearby Uttar Bhadeshwar village.
Their bodies were found buried at a sand extraction area around a kilometre off their village on February 17.
A power struggle between two groups of the local panchayat (village
arbitration body) led to the brutal murders, according to police.
Police arrested six people, including Abdul Ali, his sons Jewel Miah
and Rubel Miah, Azizur Rahman Arzu and Bashir Miah, in connection with
the killings.
Bachchu, another key accused in the case, was killed in a “gunfight”
with members of the Rapid Action Battalion early Thursday morning.
