Woman tortured, humiliated publicly on suspicion of extra-marital affair
A woman along with neighbours cut off her husband's colleague's hair, smeared ink on her face and left her on road with a garland of shoes around her neck in Savar, outside the capital, yesterday, suspecting that the two had an extramarital affair.
According to the female garment worker, she was strolling along the road at Baipail in the evening when she met Ashraful Islam and he invited her to visit his house in the same area.
They were chatting in the house when Ashraful's wife Asha Khatun returned and started shouting seeing her there. She gathered her neighbours, and beat and tortured the woman.
A case filed in this regard also made Ashraful's landlady Firoza Begum an accused.
Police arrested the couple but Firoza went into hiding. Ashraful denied having such relationship with his co-worker, said police, adding that the victim was admitted to a local clinic.
