Fardin murder: Bushra walks out of jail after 2 months
City

Amatullah Bushra, who was arrested in BUET student Fardin Noor Parash murder case, was freed on bail on Tuesday, two months after arrest.

Bushra's father Md Manzurul received her at Kashimpur Women's Central Jail at 2:30pm, said senior jail super Obaydur Rahman.

Judge Tahsin Iftekhar of Dhaka's 7th Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge's Court granted bail to Bushra on Sunday (January 8).

The decomposed body of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) student Fardin, 23, was recovered from the river Sitalakhya in Siddhirganj, Narayanganj, on November 7, three days after he went missing.

Fardin's father, Nuruddin, informed the police that his son left their Konapara house in Demra on Friday, saying that he had an academic test the following day.

Fardin was with his friend Bushra for hours on November 4 after he left his house for the BUET campus.

Bushra was arrested and placed on remand in police custody in connection with the murder case filed by Fardin's father.

Bushra's family maintained that she was innocent and had nothing to do with the death.

In mid-December, DB and RAB, in separate briefings, claimed that Fardin's death was a suicide case as he jumped off a bridge into the river Sitalakhya.
