A court in Chattogram has issued arrest warrant against former superintendent of police (SP) Babul Akter in his wife Mahmuda Khanam Mitu murder case.
Chattogram's Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Md Abdul Halim passed the order on Sunday, responding to a prayer submitted by Abu Jafar Md Omar Faruk, inspector of Police Bureau of Investigation and also investigation officer of the case, to arrest Babul.
Earlier on June 5, 2016, Babul filed the case with Panchlaish Police Station accusing three unidentified criminals for killing his wife Mitu. Mitu was stabbed and shot dead while she was taking her son to his school bus stop at Chattogram city's GEC intersection.
On May 11, 2021, Chattogram PBI summoned Babul to its office for interrogation while babul failed to give satisfactory answers to the detectives and was taken into PBI custody.
The following day, Mitu's father filed a murder case against eight people, making Babul the prime accused in the case. Mitu's father alleged that Babul is the mastermind of the killing and he killed his wife over his extra-marital affair.
