The case of the brutal murder of a Bangladeshi worker in Haa Dhaalu atoll Kulhudhuffushi by a Bangladeshi co-worker has been sent to Court for the second time.
The Attorney General’s Office had previously returned the case to the Police for further investigation citing that there were several key aspects of the investigation that needed to be clarified before the case could be sent to Court.
Shafeegul Islam, 45, who had worked with Mogul Hussain, 28, in the same shop at Moony Manzil , had been charged and arrested for the murder of Mogul after the latter’s mutilated corpse had been found discarded in the woods near the Kulhudhuffushi Football Stadium.
“The case was sent back for further investigation because a lot of important information about the case had not been detailed,” the Assistant State Attorney Hussain Shameem had said when the case was first sent back to the Police. He said yesterday that the missing details had been now filled in and the trial would commence soon.
Shameem had said earlier that when the murder suspect had been presented to the Criminal Court’s judge to extend his custody period he had revealed some very important new information to the judge and the Police’s investigation had not delved into the newly revealed information. During the investigation Shafeegul Islam had confessed to having a homosexual relationship with Mogul and had also confessed to having attacked him with a deadly weapon. When Mogul’s mutilated body had been found near the stadium on 20 August 2007, he had been stabbed multiple times in the abdomen and his genitalia had been cut off.
