Bangladeshi MP Murder Case: Flesh Found In Kolkata Septic Tank To Undergo Forensic Tests

Flesh discovered in the septic tank of the Kolkata housing complex where Bangladeshi MP Anwarul Azim Anar was allegedly murdered earlier this month will undergo forensic testing, according to the chief of the Bangladesh Detective Department. The police chief, Harun-or-Rashid, who arrived in India on Sunday, stated that any developments in the case would depend on the results of the forensic tests.

“We have opened the sewage line and septic tank of that duplex flat (murder site) with the help of West Bengal CID and found flesh there,” Harun-or-Rashid told media persons. “It will be sent for forensic and DNA tests, and only after that, something can be said…Only after forensic and DNA tests can we tell whose flesh it is…” he said.

Harun-or-Rashid is currently in India to investigate the murder case of Bangladeshi MP Anar. “We also got many digital evidences and we will also record the statement of the accused butcher. After interrogation, we matched the statement with our accused in Bangladesh. We also got circumstantial evidence and we are matching it…” he had said earlier.

Harun-or-Rashid arrived with a police team in Kolkata on Sunday afternoon and described the killing of Anar as “cold-blooded, barbaric murder.” He stated that he had never seen such a heinous planned murder.

He mentioned that the prime suspect in the murder case was identified as Akhtaruzzaman and they suspect he could have probably escaped to the United States via Dubai from Kathmandu.

Bone-chilling details surrounding the murder of the member of parliament from Bangladesh, who had been missing since May 13 just a day after his arrival in Kolkata had come to the fore.

According to the findings, the MP was allegedly killed in an apartment in Kolkata, where his body was chopped and suspects proceeded to dispose of the remains by packaging them in multiple plastic bags.

The West Bengal Criminal Investigation Department (CID) said that one of the suspects in the case, a Mumbai-based butcher confessed during interrogation that he had taken off all the skin from the Bangladeshi MP’s body, chopped it up and minced the cut parts in a bid to destroy its identity.

A Special Investigation Team (SIT) was formed to investigate the killing of the Bangladeshi MP.

Earlier this week, Bangladesh Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan, in a news conference in Dhaka said that Anar, a three-time Awami League MP, was killed in Kolkata. Speaking to reporters at his residence on Wednesday, the minister said that Bangladesh Police have arrested three persons in this connection.
