Anarul Huq vs State 67 DLR(AD) 172

Anarul Huq vs State 67 DLR(AD) 172


Fact

Ranjina Begum was murdered by her husband whose name was Anarul Huq for the demand of the dowry. The petitioner filed an appeal against the decision of the HCD which accepted the death sentence according to the Nari-o-Shishu-Nirjatan DamanAin, 2000.


Issues

1. Whether the accused is guilty of murder?
2. Whether the lower Court justified in considering the death sentence?

Decision

No case was proved under section 11(ka) of the Ain rather it has been proved under section 302 of the penal code. The sentence was reduced to imprisonment for life instead of death sentence.


Justification

The medical board found 12 injuries on the person of the victim whereas the accused side claims that she committed suicide and implicated falsely on the allegation of murder of the victim.
