Arrest warrant against two Viqarunnisa teachers

A Dhaka court issued on Sunday arrest warrant for suspended acting principal of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College Naznin Ferdous and another teacher in a case filed over the suicide of a ninth grader., reports UNB.
Judge Rabiul Alam, additional metropolitan sessions judges' court-3, passed the order after cancelling their bail.
The victim's mother testified before the court in the hearing on Sunday.
But the teachers were not present in court. The court cancelled their bail as the accused did not take any step, said assistant public prosecutor Mohammad Salauddin Hawlader.
The teachers are suspended acting principal of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College Naznin Ferdous and morning shift in-charge of Bailey Road branch Jeenat Akhter.
Earlier on November 25, the victim's father Dilip Adhikari testified before the court.
Aritree Adhikari, a class-IX student of the school, reportedly took her own life at their Shantinagar residence in the city on December 03 after allegedly being rebuked by teachers for using mobile phone during examination.
Following the incident, Dilip Adhikari filed a case against three teachers of the school.
It sparked a wave of outrage inside and outside the school and students demonstrated on the campus for three days demanding justice for death.
Later, the governing body of the school suspended three teachers -- acting Principal Nazneen Ferdous, morning shift in-charge of Bailey Road branch Jeenat Akhter and Aritree's class teacher Hasna Hena-- over the suicide case.
Police submitted charge sheet in the case on March 20, 2019 and the trial started on July 10 last year.
