On Monday afternoon at around 1:11 PM, Zakia.S.M, a 16 years old female student, returned home from an SSC test examination.

While she was standing outside her rented home's main gate in the Thanapara area waiting for it to open, M. Emon ambushed her from behind and stabbed her indiscriminately with a sharp knife before fleeing.

The attack was an act of retaliation. Zakia's family had recently complained to Emon's guardians about his persistent harassment.

Zakia suffered deep knife wounds in at least 6 different places on her hands, back and body, resulting in significant blood loss. She was rushed to General Hospital.

A Medical Officer confirmed that she received stitches and, despite her extensive injuries, she is currently out of danger.

Around 12 hours later police tracked and arrested Emon at his maternal relative's house in the Patikabari area where he was hiding.

Zakia's father has officially filed a case against the suspect at the Police Station. Emon faces severe charges, including causing grievous injuries with intent to murder.
