The deceased Asma and her son was of Naturia in Kumarkhali upazila of the Kushtia. Asma lived in Kushtia town.

Although police claimed that the relationship between the victims and the police ASI has not been confirmed yet, many people think that the incident was the result of extra marital affairs between them. However, the woman’s mother and some members of the family say that Soumen was married to Asma.

On the other hand, Shakil was of the same Naturia village. His father’s name was Mejbar Rahman Khan. He was a local agent of a mobile banking system.

An eyewitness, who did not want to be named, said that the woman came to the spot around 10:30 am and stood with her baby son. Shakil came there shortly after there. They were standing in front of the shop and talking. Shortly after that, the police ASI Shoumen came there. He was talking.

Suddenly Shoumen looks very excited. A pistol was found in his hand at that time. He then shot the woman in the head with the pistol. The bullet pierced her head and she died instantly.

He then shot Shakil in the head with the same pistol and he fell to the ground. The child Robin ran fast and entered into the mosque, just next door. Shoumen dragged the boy from there and shot in the head. The child also died on the spot.

After the killing, the assailant tried to flee from the spot when the people present at the corner rushed to the spot. When the crowd chased him, he took shelter in a house next to the incident. Excited crowds started pelting brickbats at the house.

Meanwhile, after information, the police recovered the body on the spot and arrested the killer.
Kushtia Additional Superintendent of Police Mostafizur Rahman confirmed the incident and said that the alleged involved policemen was detained and questioned.

Meanwhile, Asma’s mother Hasina Begum has claimed that her daughter Asma was married to Shoumen. Asma had told her about the marriage more than once.

On the other hand, a friend of the deceased Shakil said that Shakil knew the whole story of Asma’s extramarital affair. Asma used to take advice from Shakil at different times.

Before this love with Shoumen, Asma got married to a love 6 years ago. Robin was the child of that.

According to the source, Asma’s relationship with Shoumen was two years old. They had a variety of relationships, including physical contact. Shoumen made arrangements to keep Asma in a rented house in Kushtia town. But The Kushtia Times, however, could not verified the truth of the information.

Recently, Asma was pressuring Soumen to get married.

The source said Shoumen did not take well to Asma’s pressure for the marriage and he blamed Shakil for it.

When Asma came to the spot, she called Shakil. However, no one from Shakil’s family was available for comment.

Meanwhile, the police officials themselves think that the murder of Asma’s infant son has exposed the brutality of Shoumen.

Additional Superintendent of Police Mostafizur Rahman said the child had no guilt. He even wanted to run away and live after seeing his mother die.

He said the interrogation was ongoing. The police may need more inquiries after the specified time.
