The withdrawal of Tk1.459 million from Treasury by Ganapati Chakraborty, who was later killed along with three members of his family in Rangpur, has emerged as a new point of interest in the investigation.
The Daspara village in Rangpur appears unusually silent even after four members of the same family were murdered. Four people were killed inside a house in the densely populated neighbourhood, yet residents of neighbouring houses say they knew nothing and heard no screams. The victims were Ganapati Chakraborty, his wife Pritilata Chakraborty, their daughter Agami Chakraborty Prarthi, and son Ayush Chakraborty Priyam.
"I received the news late on Saturday night, August 22, and rushed to Ganapati sir's house the next morning. But the police did not let us inside at that time. I returned. Later, after 12pm, I went to the house again. The stench of blood at Ganapati sir's house was so strong that it was impossible to enter. We cannot understand why everything was cleaned up so quickly."
Rangpur Metropolitan DB Police has revealed why Mugdha Das and Siddhartha Chandra Das came into the police’s list of suspicion in the murder of Ganapati Chakrabarti and three members of his family in Kamalkachna Machuapara (Daspara) area of Rangpur metropolis. Alongside, several detailed pieces of information from before and after the arrest have come up citing locals.
Bablu Kumar Biswas, assistant professor of the Forensic Medicine Department of Rangpur Medical College Hospital, has said that there are no signs of rape on the bodies of the deceased mother and daughter of retired teacher Ganapati Chakravarty of Machuapara in Rangpur city. On the other hand, a mortuary worker (dom) has told Views Bangladesh that the mother and daughter may have been raped before the murder.
