“Name Abdul Wakil raped and tortured me from August 8 to August 11, 2022, in hotel galaxy room 501 of Cox Bazar. He stole my cash and mobile and also threatened my parents to kill me. Please give me justice. He is a student of Dr Halima Khatun Nursing Institute, Mymensingh,” the victim’s Facebook post read.
“As a foreign student, it’s a huge threat to our safety. Please raise your voice,” she added. The Indian student informed that Abdul Wakil had threatened to make their intimate videos viral.
Amrita shared the screenshots of the disturbing conversations and wrote, “Abdul Wakil is now making my videos viral. His friends along with some journalists are now trying to extort money from me. Please, do something about it.”
Amrita revealed that Abdul Wakil was not all alone but had the help from yet another Muslim woman identified as Jakiya. In another Facebook post, the Indian student lamented her decision of pursuing medical science in the Islamic Republic of Bangladesh. “Do not inhabit a country, where you are not respected, cannot earn your livelihood, have no friends or cannot acquire knowledge,” she wrote.
In a media report, the victim lamented her ordeal and how she became the victim of Bangladesh’s radical Muslims Love Jihad trap. she said, “He (Abdul) pretended to love me for the previous 5-6 months. Took advantage of the fact that I was all alone in Bangladesh.”
“I reached the hotel by bus. He said that he would not behave wrongly. We were going on a trip. He had different plans and one thing led to another. I never consented to the (sexual) acts. He threatened to kill me if I didn’t comply. He seized my belongings including money so I couldn’t run away,” she said.
On being asked about the images, the victim informed, “He was sleeping and that was the only chance I had to keep some evidence. He didn’t let me click any other photos. That’s why he stole my phone and hacked my Google accounts to delete his past pictures with me…He has a previous record of such rape incidents in his village.”
“My parents have disowned me. I can’t enter my house. I am currently staying at relatives’ place,” said Amrita.
