Home minister Asaduzzaman Khan on Wednesday said those who will be found responsible for the death of Mosharrat Jahan Munia must be brought to book, reports UNB.

The minister said this while talking with the journalists at his Dhanmondi residence in Dhaka on Wednesday.

"I clearly say that everything will go as per the law. The law will take its own course. Whoever is the culprit will face the trial. So, we can say more about it only after investigation," he added.

Police on Monday recovered the hanging body of Mosharrat Jahan, 21, daughter of late Shafiqur Rahman, a freedom fighter of Monoharpur in Cumilla district, from a flat in Dhaka's Gulshan area.

Following the recovery of her body, the victim's sister, Nusrat Jahan, filed a case under section 306 of Penal Code at Gulshan police station around 1:30 am on Tuesday.

In the case, Nusrat Jahan made Sayem Sobhan Anvir, managing director of Bashundhara Group, as the lone accused of abetting the death of the 21-year-old college student.
