Housewife Burned to Death with Kerosene: Killer Husband Arrested

In Sitakunda, Chattogram, the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) has arrested Moslem Uddin, the fugitive husband accused of pouring kerosene on his wife and burning her to death. The arrest was made on Thursday, July 24, in the Joyar Mor area of Kotwali Thana, Faridpur district.

The victim, a housewife, was a resident of Dakshin Sonapahar village under Jorarganj Thana in Chattogram. Twelve years ago, she married Moslem Uddin according to Islamic Shariah. However, since the marriage, Moslem Uddin allegedly subjected her to physical and mental abuse over dowry demands.
