Siraj plotted to murder Nusrat by setting her afire as she refused to withdraw a case filed against him over sexual assault on her on March 27. Nuruddin, Jabed, Jubayer, Umme Sultana Poppy and Moni, among others, were present there. Shahadat, Jabed and Jubayer entered the madrasa around 9:30am and put on burkas on the third floor of the cyclone centre. As Nusrat and Poppy climbed the stairs to the rooftop, Shahadat, Jubayer, Jabed and Moni followed them from the third floor. Instructed by Shahadat, Jabed struck a matchstick and set Nusrat ablaze.
