A younger sister has become impregnated by repeated rape of elder brother at Kabirhat upazila in Noakhali district.
Police arrested the accused Bahar following the girl's uncle filed a case against him.
Arrested Bahar gave confessional statement under Section 164 after he was produced before Noakhali's chief judicial magistrate court on Friday afternoon. His confessional statement was recorded by senior judicial magistrate Sheikh Md Mohibullah of the Court No. 7. Later, he was sent to jail.
The case filed with Kabirhat Police Station states that the girl's mother is not alive. Father can be physically disabled. He works as a labourer at a brick-field at Satkania upazila in Chattogram district. The girl's elder sister has recently got married. Elder brother Bahar has been raping the lady over the last three to four years. The girl cannot tell anyone about the problem fearing about social stigmatization. When changes came to her body recently, she informed her aunt about the problem on April 23 last. The lady is currently five months' pregnant. On April 24, the girl's uncle filed a rape case against Bahar with Kabirhat Police Station.
Kabirhat Police Station officer-in-charge (OC) Thomas Barua said Bahar went absconding following the rape case was filed against him. He was working at a brick-field at Satkania upazila in Chattogram. Police arrested Bahar from the brick-field after Thursday midnight and brought him in Noakhali on Friday morning. Later, he was sent to court.
