Prime accused in Rajon murder case brought back
We are comforted by the fact that our government has been successful in bringing back the prime accused in the Rajon murder case after he had escaped to Saudi Arabia. Thanks to the expatriate Bangladeshis who identified and caught him, the joint efforts of the Bangladesh foreign ministry, police headquarters, Bangladesh missions in Saudi Arabia and the Saudi authorities, for their sincere efforts in trying to catch the man who led the terrible torture and death of 13-year-old Rajon. For this nation, shocked by a crime so abhorrent and made public through a video posted on social media, there is a sense of satisfaction to see that there is a movement towards getting justice for this young boy and his bereaved family.
Now that the prime accused has been brought back we expect that the perverted criminals are tried and punished through an expeditious legal process. This will send out a strong statement that the State and our society as a whole, will not tolerate violence on children and any violators will be caught and given the harshest punishment by law.
All too often we witness how perpetrators of the vilest crimes go unpunished because they somehow find ways to dupe the system. Let Rajon's case prove to be different.
