A Kushtia court has sentenced an assistant sub-inspector of police to death, who has been absconding since jumping bail in 2022, for murdering a woman, her son, and another person in broad daylight around three years ago. Soumen, a native of Asba village in Magura Sadar Upazila, was working as an ASI at Fultala Police Station in Khulna. During interrogation, Soumen told the police that Asma was his wife and Robin her son from her previous marriage. Asma’s mother, Hasina Khatun, the plaintiff in the case against Soumen, was disappointed at the bail granted to Soumen. Public Prosecutor Anup said Soumen was freed after submitting a bail bond to the trial court on November 24, 2022.
