Bangladesh's High Court demanded protection for a rape victim from Cumilla district on Sunday. The court also required all victim photos and videos to disappear from social media platforms within one day. Officials must submit a case progress report within 15 days. Justice Fahmida Quader and Justice Sayed Jahed Mansur made these demands during a court hearing. The judges acted on a legal petition filed about the case.
Police have captured five suspects connected to the sexual assault in Muradnagar area. Officers arrested the primary suspect Fajar Ali along with four others. The group faces charges for attacking the woman and sharing her video online. Investigators linked all five people to both the assault and the video distribution. The arrests came after authorities identified the suspects through their investigation.
The court hearing addressed a legal challenge brought before the High Court division. The judges reviewed evidence and arguments from lawyers representing different parties. Court officials processed the petition according to legal procedures. The hearing resulted in specific orders about victim protection and evidence removal. Legal representatives presented their cases to the two-judge panel.
Social media companies must remove all visual content showing the victim within 24 hours. The court order applies to all networking sites that may have the victim's images or videos. Platform operators face legal consequences if they fail to comply with the removal deadline. The directive aims to protect the victim from further harm and embarrassment. Authorities will monitor social media sites to ensure compliance with the court order.
