Case Details:
Victim Farida Parvin, age 14, resides in Sultanpur village. She is a student in Class IX at
Madhurkul Higher Secondary School.
On 2 August 2006 at 10.00am, Farida Parvin was going to school when Hasibul Islam, Hadul
Hakim Mondal, and Chandmon Bibi forcefully kidnapped her.
That, Farida Parvin’s family members went in search of her. Some local people informed them
about the kidnapping. They went to the house of the perpetrators, where they learnt that Farida
Parvin had been transferred to an unknown location in Bihar.
On 3 August 2006, Farida Parvin’s family registered a complaint at the Domkal PS.
On 8 August 2006, Farida Parvin’s father Abdul Bari went to the Domkal PS again. There, he
lodged another complaint in which he included the registration numbers of the motorcycles used
in the kidnapping. OC Premangsu Chattaraj and SI Sakhauddin Shaikh accepted the complaint
but did not record all of the details before forcing Abul Bari to sign.
The OC later asked Abdul Bari to pay Rs. 20,000 to secure Farida Parvin’s rescue.
Meanwhile, Jabed Mondal and Alauddin Mondal went to Sultanpur village on a motorcycle and
threatened Abdul Bari and other villagers. When the villagers protested, Jabed Mondal and
Alauddin Mondal fled.
