Social injustice, compounded by insecurity and negligent authorities, appear to have driven Hazrat Ali to commit suicide and kill his eight-year-old adopted daughter in Gazipur last week. Rather, Hossain and Faruk tried to grab their properties and evict them from the land,” he said. “Hazrat might have committed suicide as he had been unable to protect his daughter and save his properties.”Another UP member, Humayun Kabir Pradhan, said Faruk had shown an interest in seizing the family’s property. Over a week has elapsed since the tragic deaths Hazrat and Ayesha, but the police are yet to determine whether it was a suicide or an accident. “The girl might have fallen on the track, and Hazrat tried to rescue her but failed,” he told the Dhaka Tribune.
