Magura, Apr 22 (bdnews24.com) –A housewife has been burnt to death at Sripur Upazila in Magura on Wednesday night.
Rupsha Khatun, 26, of Mujdia village was first brought to Magura Sadar Hospital before being shifted to Faridpur Medical College Hospital where she died on Thursday morning.
Rupsha's father, Abul Kashem of Radhanagar village told bdnews24.com that Rupsha's husband, Sajjad Khan, and other in-laws beat Rupsha and burnt her with kerosene at around 10pm.
Sajjad is the son of Ayub Khan of Mujdia village.
Abul Kashem and his lawyer Eskandar Azam Bablu said that Rupsha was married to Sajjad in 2008.
Rupsha's in-laws began to torture her for dowry soon after the marriage.
She came to her father from her in-laws three months ago.
A month ago she filed a case against her husband and other in-laws with the Magura judicial magistrates court.
A week ago Rupsha went to her in-laws after the two families resolved the problem mutually.
But they began to demand dowry and pressured her to withdraw the case.
Azizul Haque, the OC of Sripur Police Station said that they had not been informed of Rupsha's death.
No case had been filed with the police station.
