Brutal Killing of Rajon

Probe finds cops negligence

Jalalabad OC closed, two Sis suspended

Our CORRESPONDENT, Moulvibazar
A police probe committee has found negligence of law enforcers in arresting the killers of 13-year-old Samiul Alam Rajon, and political influence in letting one perpetrator flee the country.
Based on the committee report, the Sylhet Metropolitan Police (SMP) closed an officer-in-charge and suspended two sub-inspectors of Jalalabad Police Station yesterday.
Rahmat Ullah, additional deputy commissioner of the SMP, confirmed to The Daily Star that the action was taken against OC (investigation) Alamgir Hossain and sub-inspectors Aminul Islam and Zakir Hossain.
Earlier on July 14, SI Aminul Islam was withdrawn allegedly for cutting a deal with accused Kamrul Islam and helping him flee to Saudi Arabia after the killing.
" Police failed to arrest Rajon's murderers due to their negligence and there was a political interference to save them," SMP Additional Commissioner SM Rokun Uddin, who headed the probe body, told this correspondent yesterday.
But he did not clarify who were behind the political interference.
Rajon was beaten to death in Kumargaon Bus Stand area of Sylhet on the morning of July 8. A group of men hit the boy with a stick in the head, feet, joints of legs and shoulders for "trying to steal a rickshaw".
One of them filmed the scene on a mobile phone and shared it on the social media, sparking outrage at home and abroad.
The boy died of brain haemorrhage. His body bore 64 injury marks.
Locals caught prime accused Muhit Alam, brother of Kamrul, when he was trying to dump the body and turned him in to the police.
On July 14, the SMP formed the three-member committee to investigate alleged police negligence during the killing, their reported financial deal with the killers afterwards and their misbehaviour with the victim's parents.
Originally, the committee was to submit the report within three days, but failed. It then sought five more days.
Rokun Uddin and his two colleagues in the committee submitted the 424-page report to SMP Commissioner Kamrul Ahsan around 11:00pm onThursday.
The probe found that police indeed misbehaved with Rajon's father when he went to file a case with the Jalalabad
police, and this has been mentioned in the report, said Rokon.
Kamrul Ahsan said he would make the report public through the media later.
Meanwhile, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said the government would take tough action against those held accountable in the report for the murder of Rajon.
“No one will be spared," he told
reporters at MAG Osmani International Airport in Sylhet before leaving for Dhaka yesterday.
He added that the government would soon bring back Kamrul, now in Saudi police custody, and put him on trial.
Bangladeshi migrant workers in the Kingdom caught Kamrul in Jeddah after they saw the news of Rajon's murder on TV and then handed him over to the local police through the
Bangladesh mission there.
On the allegation that law enforcers helped Kamrul flee the country, the minister said the accused would face action if the allegation proved to be true.
"They [the culprits] will be tried under the Speedy Trial Tribunal Act," he said.
So far, 12 people have been arrested in this connection, including all the four accused named in the case.
