Algerian national killed Zubair

Detectives say about 'drowning' in Uttara

Staff Correspondent
Algerian national Abuubaida Kadir, who initially provided law enforcers with the details of Zubair’s drowning in an Uttara pond, actually killed the teenager, detectives claimed yesterday.
"He |Kadir| tried to molest Zubair when they were swimming in the pond. As the boy resisted and jostled for escaping, he plunged the teenager into the water," said Shaikh Nazmul Alam, deputy commissioner of Detective Branch (north division), Dhaka Metropolitan Police.
Briefing reporters at the DMP media centre, the DB official said the 46-year-old Algerian is “a child molester and

also a homosexual." He has been living in Bangladesh illegally for nearly a decade.
He added Kadir, a bachelor, used to get acquainted with teen boys in the name of training them football. He would eventually ask them to get involved in physical relationship with him.
"There is evidence of his homosexuality in his Facebook page and cell phone," said DC Nazmul, adding that he killed Zubair after he failed to impress the boy.
During investigation, detectives learned that Kadir sent indecent messages to several boys, mostly from English medium schools, while chatting on Facebook over the last few months.
The body of Zubair Ahmed, an O-level student, was found in a pond at the capital's Uttara sector-4, a day after he had gone missing on October 4. Divers from the fire brigade recovered his body following information from Kadir.
Later, police also nabbed Bangladeshi national Ismail Hossain, who witnessed the whole incident, according to DB officials.
Zubair's mother Dilara Begum on
October 5 filed a case with Uttara Purbo Police Station, accusing Kadir and Ismail for killing her son.
The duo went into hiding after Zubair's drowning. Earlier, Kadir asked Ismail not to disclose the matter and also offered him money to keep silent, according to DB officials.
During primary interrogation, Ismail told the DB that after the football game ended, all the boys except Zubair left the ground. Kadir and Zubair along with him then sat beside the pond. At one point Zubair jumped into the water and Kadir followed him.
When the family members failed to trace Zubair till midnight, they started calling his friends from his cell phone that he left at home, DB officials added.
They found Ismail's cell phone switched-off while Kadir did not answer the call. Kadir called back on Zubair's cell phone the next morning and said he knew where the boy was.
"He also started talking irrelevantly," said DC Nazmul, quoting family members.
Kadir, however, told police that he tried to save Zubair from drowning while the boy was trying to retrieve a football from the pond.
