Stolen child rescued from Fatullah
A two year-old child, stolen from Demra on April 29, was rescued by police from a house in Fatullah of Narayanganj yesterday.
The girl Konika is daughter of Al Amin Mollah, a fish trader of Demra and resident of Demra Bansher Pool area. Demra police arrested three people -- Shova, Mokbul, 45, and Ratan, 20, -- in this connection.
Officer-in-Charge (OC) Nurul Muttakin Bhuiyan of Demra Police Station said Shova came to Amin's house claiming to be in search of her sister. Locals Mokbul, 45 and Ratan, 20, assured Amin that they knew Shova and her sister once did live there.
Amin let Shova stay for the night when she requested but in the evening found Shova and Konika missing. Amin filed a case with Demra police on May 6 accusing Shova, Mokbul and Ratan, said the OC.
Police arrested Mokbul and Ratan on May 7. On their information, police arrested Shova from Dogair area in Demra yesterday where she lived with her rickshaw-puller husband.
After interrogating her, police recovered Konika from a woman residing in Rasulpur of Fatullah. The woman said Shova, who was an acquaintance, left the girl with her, added the OC.
