A 19-YEARS-OLD Jumma
girl has been subjected to an attempted rape in Naniachar, Rangamati district,
according to sources.
The victim, an honours
course student of Rangamati Govt College, was returning to her
home in Nanakrum village under Burighat Union after seeing her friend off at a
bus station in the morning today, Sunday, when a Bengali settler youth attacked
her.
As she was alone on
the way, Md. Maharaj, 20, son of Ali Hossain Munshi of Islampur village in
Burighat grabbed her and tried to rape her.
However, the girl
struggled hard to free herself and at one stage succeeded in freeing herself by
hitting her would-be rapist with her umbrella, which she was carrying with her.
Maharaj, who was on
his way to work at Nanakrum, failed to rape her and finally let her go. He went
into hiding after the incident.
