All she wants is punishment
Rumana weeps, tells how she forgave husband upon numerous tortures
(June 22, 2011) We want to punish Rumana's husband.
Ferhana Akter Jui It is a brutal act by Hasan. He must be punished.
Md. Siddiqur Rahman Death sentence is an easy punishment for the inhuman crime.
Sheikh Monirul Islam Opee Our society should be seriously aware of conjugal violence. We always think only poor men can violently attack their wives. But Rumana's case shows that it also happens in educated, elite and middle class people. We are really in deep moral crisis.
Iqbal Ehsan Shovon There is another point that makes me wonder about the standing social psyche of Bangladesh. Questions were asked about Rumana's alleged affair. Even if she had one, that does not justify any brutality of this sort. Simple divorce would have been sufficient. I am sorry for her and hope light will shine in her eyes again.
Tirtho Mahmud Hasan has acted as criminal, no doubt. But only Hasan did not create the situation, element of mistrust and insecurity contributed to the event. Continuous inferiority complex due to social position, unemployment, eye sight problem and mental health was associated with it.
Suja Sarker Rumana's husband should be publicly hanged. He does not deserve any mercy.
Shamsun Nahar Please do not take too much time to punish Rumana's husband Hasan Sayeed. Make sure that Hasan gets hard punishment as soon as possible.
Orpa Kuzur Hasan deserves an exemplary punishment for his cruel, heinous and barbaric act. Repression against women must be stopped.
Anowar hossain It is a shame for us. Sayeed is a disgrace to our society. The culprit should not be allowed to escape as many Sayeeds are hidden in our society.
Arislam Women of every family please raise your stern voice against all sorts of discrimination and domestic violence and obviously follow respective religious directions for ultimate social stability.
Md Ruhul Amin Character assassination by a section of the media and some individuals on social media is nothing but an attempt to save the human beast Sayeed from dire punishment.
Kh. Shahirul Islam Conjugal differences, any incongruity in relationship which are beyond irreparable, the solution can be separation or divorce. Torturing wife is a crime and in this case the ruffian should be punished so that other similar offenders can take a lesson.
Masud Isa I condemn the heinous attack. The guy should get an exemplary punishment so that such incident is never repeated.
Saif Even if she had a relationship he could have divorced her. He has committed a crime.
