Pallabi child rape and murder: Two sentenced to death 19 days after incident, what the court said in its observations

In reviewing the verdict, the court further stated that the medical testimonies and evidence in the case proved the child was raped and subsequently murdered. This was also substantiated by the testimony of the police officer who prepared the inquest report.

Testimonies from witnesses 1 to 16 revealed that after the rape and murder, the accused Sohel Rana cut through the window grill and fled. During this time, the other accused, Swapna Akhter, was present in the flat. Instead of intervening to stop the murder and rape, she abetted the crime. Consequently, both accused, Sohel Rana and Swapna Akhter, are guilty of the same offence.

The court added in its observations that, based on all evidence and testimonies, it was proven that the accused Sohel Rana raped and murdered the child between 9:00 am and 11:00 am. The court also cited the confessional statement of the accused Sohel Rana, in which he admitted to raping and murdering the child.
