DHAKA, BANGLADESH 12th November: Police taking Oishee Rahman to court in Dhaka on November 12, 2015. A Dhaka court has sentenced Oishee Rahman to death for killing her parents, inspector Mahfuzur Rahman of the Special Branch of Police and his wife Swapna Rahman. Police Inspector Mahfuzur Rahman and his wife Swapna Rahman were found murdered in their apartment in Dhaka in 2013. Police pressed charges against their daughter Oishee Rahman, her two friends and house help Khadija Akter Sumi for murders at the couple’s residence in the capital’s Chamelibagh.
