A woman was reportedly raped by a union parishad chairman at Ashulia under Savar upazila in Dhaka, when she went to him for  justice to recover her money borrowed by a lender.

She lodged a case against three people including Ashulia Union Parishad chairman Shahabuddin Madbar, 50, with the Women and Children Repression Prevention Tribunal on Sunday. The tribunal took the matter into cognizance and asked Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) to investigate the incident.
The victim also tried to lodge a case with Ashulia Police Station but police there declined to record the case, it is alleged.

Two others accused are the 38-year-old chairman Md Alamgir's brother-in-law, and his’s personal secretary Sabuj Sikder, 35.

According to the case statement, the victim gave Tk 5 lakh as a loan to a trader of Ashulia Bazar. On September 22, the victim along with her relative went to the chairman’s office to seek help for realising her money borrowed to the lender.

“We went to the chairman's house as he was absent at office. He then suggested us to lodge a case with court in this regard. Alamgir and Sabuj blocked our way to home and confined us in separate room in the UP office. The chairman then entered my room and raped me,” narrated the victim in her statement.

Alamgir and Sabuj released her on condition not to disclose the matter, read the statement.

Ashulia Police Station inspector Ziaul Islam said he has been asked about lodging any complaint with the police station in this regard.
