The plaintiff in the case expressing anger said that the investigating officer of Barkal police station had removed the names of the four accused from the charge sheet because these accused have a secret relationship with the police officers. She also mentioned the police did not even interrogate these four accused. She also complained that IO filed a complaint under the Pornography Control Act but did not file a complaint of embezzling of 70,000 taka to the court.

The plaintiff said, “The law is equal for all. I want all criminals to be punished through impartial investigation. Police have been biased in investigating the case and have filed inconsistent charges in court.” She also said she will apply to seek a full investigation into the case through her lawyer.
