Meanwhile, a separate incident was reported late on Thursday night in Domar, Nilphamari, where a disabled young woman was attacked inside her home. The accused, Arman Hossain, 26, and his fifteen-year-old associate Laju, both construction workers based in Dhaka, had reportedly boarded a Dhaka-bound train earlier that evening before disembarking surreptitiously.
