A court in Moulvibazar on Wednesday sentenced four people to death in connection with a case filed over the murder of college student Rezaul Karim Naim.
Moulvibazar District and Sessions Judge Mohammad Robiul Awal delivered the verdict, acquitting five other accused in the case.
According to the case statement, a dispute broke out between Naim’s father Mohammad Cherag Mia and neighbour Nurul Islam at Cherag’s house in Barshijora village under Chandnighat union of Moulvibazar Sadar upazila on the evening of 7 November, 2025.
The dispute reportedly arose over a Facebook account, with Nurul alleging that Cherag was operating a fake account using his photograph.
At one stage, Nurul allegedly abused and assaulted Naim’s parents. When Naim intervened, Nurul, his son Rony Mia and their associates allegedly attacked him with locally made weapons.
Naim suffered serious injuries and was taken to Moulvibazar Sadar Hospital. As his condition deteriorated, he was shifted to Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College Hospital, where he died early the following day.
On 9 November, his father filed a case with Moulvibazar Model Police Station against 10 named accused and four to five unidentified persons.
The accused, including Nurul Islam, allegedly went into hiding following the incident.
